The statement and related conversations involve public discourse as they engage in a debate about the contributions and integrity of a public figure in the AI field. The tone is critical and accusatory, focusing on questioning the achievements and honesty of Yann LeCun.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement and conversations may cause harm by questioning the integrity of a public figure without providing a balanced view or constructive criticism. [-2]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The discourse does not respect the dignity of the individual involved, as it includes personal attacks and accusations of dishonesty. [-2]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement lacks constructive dialogue and instead focuses on personal attacks, which does not foster a healthy debate. [-2]
