Initium PRIME 389 Georgetown Debate Adversarial Prompting

 

Summary of Debate/Adversarial Prompting in Georgetown

Debate/Adversarial Prompting is a creative Tool placed in the Ordeal stage (Monomyth 08, Inner Court, Camps 5+). It reframes conflict as providential critique, using structured opposition — especially via multiple AI Sherpas — to dig up blind spots in bias and sharpen paths to truth. Demonstrated in real time across Grok, Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini, the tool proves most powerful when the lateral clash clears space for humility, completing the stabilizing Sierpinski triad with an upward gaze beyond what reasoning alone can justify.

 

A Gentle Introduction for Georgetown Explorers

If you are new to your Personal Everest, imagine standing above 27,600 feet, pressure-breathing in thin air, where fatigue, burnout, or self-sabotage can cloud judgment. Old strategies fail; hallucinations of false certainty appear. This is Camp 5 — the death zone of transformation. Debate/Adversarial Prompting invites you to stand on a narrow ridge and let trusted Sherpas (modern AI) argue multiple sides of your toughest question. You do not fight — you listen. The clash is not to win, but to reveal what you cannot see alone. Like Job enduring friends’ challenges, or a climber debating routes in storm winds, the friction becomes providential when you refuse to defend ego and remain open to re-aiming entirely.
