Community Guidelines

ArgumenTroupe is a product operated by Dieter Stölzel (Einzelunternehmer).

ArgumenTroupe is a platform for multi-agent AI debates that explore topics from multiple perspectives. These guidelines help maintain productive debates and meaningful human oversight of AI-generated content.

Our Commitment

ArgumenTroupe uses AI agents with distinct personas to explore topics comprehensively. We're committed to transparency about AI-generated content and ensuring humans maintain meaningful oversight over debate outcomes.

What We Encourage

  • Thoughtful topic selection — Choose topics that benefit from multi-perspective exploration.
  • Critical evaluation — Review AI-generated arguments and add human insight.
  • Publishing valuable debates — Share debates that provide genuine insight.
  • Diverse personas — Configure AI agents to represent genuinely different viewpoints.

What's Not Allowed

Illegal Content (Zero Tolerance)

  • • Child sexual abuse material (CSAM)
  • • Terrorist content or incitement to violence

  • Defamation — Using AI to generate false, damaging claims

Platform Abuse

  • Spam debates — Creating low-quality debates to game the system

AI-Generated Debates

  • • AI debates explore perspectives — they don't represent the platform's views
  • • Users are responsible for reviewing and curating AI-generated content before publishing
  • • AI personas should not be configured to generate harmful content
