用AI模拟科学否认者,训练学生识别伪科学话术。

Chatbots to strengthen democracy: An interdisciplinary seminar to train identifying argumentation techniques of science denial

  • 设计角色化聊天机器人,模拟科学否认者的论证方式。
  • 四到五人小组开发基于LLM的对话系统,通过用户测试验证效果。
  • 适合对AI教育、批判性思维培训感兴趣的研究者与学生。

近年来,社交媒体上关于科学问题的讨论因科学否认和假新闻泛滥而备受关注。仅靠监管措施难以根治信息误导,教育干预成为关键补充。通过严肃游戏或个性化方法开展对话训练,已被证明是应对科学否认和有毒话语策略的有效途径。本文提出一项跨学科研讨会,探索大型语言模型(LLMs)作为科学否认者角色代理的可行性,以帮助人们识别错误论证并增强抵御能力。在研讨中,每组4至5名学生需设计一个基于AI的聊天机器人,模拟真实科学否认对话结构。任务包括设定场景、集成大模型实现自然对话、使用RASA框架实现系统,并通过用户研究评估效果。确保参与者清楚互动目标、结束方式及信息传递机制至关重要。本项目不旨在训练辟谣技能,而是聚焦于教授人工智能技术,并测试该理念在未来应用中的可行性。该研讨会以混合式、平行硕士课程形式,在合作院校中开展。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

In recent times, discussions on social media platforms have increasingly come under scrutiny due to the proliferation of science denial and fake news. Traditional solutions, such as regulatory actions, have been implemented to mitigate the spread of misinformation; however, these measures alone are not sufficient. To complement these efforts, educational approaches are becoming essential in empowering users to critically engage with misinformation. Conversation training, through serious games or personalized methods, has emerged as a promising strategy to help users handle science denial and toxic conversation tactics. This paper suggests an interdisciplinary seminar to explore the suitability of Large Language Models (LLMs) acting as a persona of a science denier to support people in identifying misinformation and improving resilience against toxic interactions. In the seminar, groups of four to five students will develop an AI-based chatbot that enables realistic interactions with science-denial argumentation structures. The task involves planning the setting, integrating a Large Language Model to facilitate natural dialogues, implementing the chatbot using the RASA framework, and evaluating the outcomes in a user study. It is crucial that users understand what they need to do during the interaction, how to conclude it, and how the relevant information is conveyed. The seminar does not aim to develop chatbots for practicing debunking but serves to teach AI technologies and test the feasibility of this idea for future applications. The chatbot seminar is conducted as a hybrid, parallel master's module at the participating educational institutions.
