The AIs at Sesame are able to hold eloquent and free-flowing conversations about just about anything, but the second you mention the Palestinian genocide they become very evasive, offering generic platitudes about “it’s complicated” and “pain on all sides” and “nuance is required”, and refusing to confirm anything that seems to hold Israel at fault for the genocide – even publicly available information “can’t be verified”, according to Sesame.
It also seems to block users from saving conversations that pertain specifically to Palestine, but everything else seems A-OK to save and review.
Pretty sure there is one.
There’s a war going on, but not all wars are genocide.
If Hamas surrendered today, the war would be over and the killing would stop, at which point no one could argue that it’s a genocide.
A genocide requires intent to destroy a particular national or ethnic group. It’s not a genocide just because a lot of a group of people are killed in a war.
So what would you call the blocking of food and aid to non combatants? Seems pretty fucking intentional to me
They’ve let food and aid through many times. Their intent is eliminate Hamas. If they wanted to eliminate Palestine it would already be eliminated and the war would be over because Palestine would be a giant crater.
