Can LLMs Judge Debates? Evaluating Non-Linear Reasoning via Argumentation Theory Semantics
Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at linear reasoning tasks but remain underexplored on non-linear structures such as those found in natural debates, which are best expressed as argument graphs. We evaluate whether LLMs can approximate structured reasoning from Computational Argumentation Theory (CAT). Specifically, we use Quantitative Argumentation Debate (QuAD) semantics, which assigns acceptability scores to arguments based on their attack and support relations. Given only dialogue-formatte…

Argentina pushes pipeline exports through protected Patagonian waters
San Matías Gulf, on the northern coast of Argentina’s Patagonia region, is one of the most biodiverse areas in the Argentine Sea. The Valdés Peninsula — a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1999 and a biosphere reserve since 2014 — forms its southern border. It’s surrounded by Islote Lobos National Park, the Puerto Lobos and […]

£100Bn or £20?
How much would water nationalisation cost initially?
If the companies are allowed to go bankrupt then the latter.
Of course then there will be more costs of investing properly in decent water infrastructure, water conservation and waste reduction and management.
But the public are being asked to pay for that, and profits and bonuses now.

Reasoning is about giving reasons
Convincing someone of the truth value of a premise requires understanding and articulating the core logical structure of the argument which proves or disproves the premise. Understanding the logical structure of an argument refers to understanding the underlying "reasons" which make up the proof or disproof of the premise - as a function of the "logical atoms" in the argument. While it has been shown that transformers can "chain" rules to derive simple arguments, the challenge of articulating t…
