Abstract

This article discusses whether computer-assisted debating may overcome several challenges of human debaters, including cultural/language biases and disabilities as well as physical constraints of time and distance. After briefly reviewing the history of debating assisted by computers, the article examines how computers can assist various steps in debating, and then examines some challenges debaters face and the question of unfair enhancement of performance in sports and debating. Finally, the article proposes a set of principles and rules in debate competitions with computers. In conclusion, some questions are raised about the attempts to overcome time constraints with “cybernetic avatars.”
