Here is RationalWiki's Entry on the Motte and Bailey fallacy. I thought there was one on here as well, but I think there may have been an overhaul on the fallacies list recently - the motte and bailey fallacy might be considered a rhetorical device rather than an actual logical fallacy. So, I think the AI started to explain it well...
But, it missed an important element after that, which is equivocation between the two points, and that generally requires the points to be fairly similar. Saying AI will enslave humanity, then when challenged saying that what you really meant is that it would take jobs, is a pretty transparent change in position. Using some more generic phrasing like "AI is dangerous to humanity," then falling back on jobs, would be a better example. |
