I enjoy having debates.

Would it pay attention to my points and be ready to counter?

Half-dead, dead or extra-dead? You decide.

Could it pivot and stay cool under pressure remaining clear, sharp and focused at all times?

Would it be able to successfully persuade me that my argument was flawed?

And how long could I keep up the pace without becoming bored?

Or should I just try something odd?

It gave me 15 choices and they included do fish ever get thirsty?

There were some other interesting topics such as is water wet, or does it just make things wet?

In that sense, it had just held a mini-debate with itself and the points felt a tad dry.

I considered how best to get ChatGPT to serve up a livelier debate with a bit more back-and-forth action.

Be lively, argumentative and display strong analytical and critical thinking skills.

Listen to what I have to say and respond.

Vampires manipulate it, it said, asking if I was siding with the zombies or the vamps.

It then provided a very quick, yet comprehensive reply doubling down on its argument.

It began to feel more like a real two-way conversation.

It asked me more targeted questions as opposed to just finishing off with What do you say to that?

which helped with my thought process and argument.

Or a complete waste of time.

No, definitely, great.
