AI & argumentation

AI, or artificial intelligence, refers to computer systems designed to mimic human thinking, learning, and decision-making. Argumentation in AI involves the system analyzing, constructing, and evaluating arguments—reasoned statements supporting or opposing ideas—much like a debate. This enables AI to make informed judgments, assist in decision-making, or improve understanding of complex issues. Essentially, AI argumentation models how humans reason through conversations or debates, allowing machines to interpret and generate logical discourse for tasks like problem-solving, evidence evaluation, or negotiations.
