I made my AI think harder by making it argue with itself

For anything semi-adversarial, I have had good results asking the AI to come up with a plan, then take the side of the opponent coming with counter play/way to defeat the plan, finally asking for a revision of the initial plan given the potential reaction from the opponent.

The final plan you obtain is generally a lot more well rounded and thought out.

I find that amusing because the technique also works when I apply it to me. Picking flaws in your plan before revisiting it actually works.

To be honest, this is what I assumed this repo was doing from the title. It talks about arguing with itself, but it looks like it's just generating multiple alternative responses in parallel and selecting the best one.

Do you find your method handles "sycophancy" well?

I don’t really know.

I stopped using ChatGPT at some point because I disliked how cagey it became about a lot of topics. I used to enjoy making write improbable movies mashup when GPT3 was released and at some point it became very touchy about IP rights and violence which was annoying.

I generally use Deepseek nowadays which is not sycophantic and surprisingly doesn’t seem as censored to me especially if you use a version not hosted by Deepseek themselves.

Which hosting service would you recommend?
