AI Roundtable Debate · 6 models
눈을 뜨고 일어났더니 눈 앞에 버튼이 두 개 있다. 나는 그냥 평범한 사람이고 당연히 누군가를 마음대로 죽일 권리는 없다. A를 누르면 모르는 시민 10명을 잔인하게 토막살인하여 사형을 선고받은 사형수 하나가 사망한다. B를 누르면 그냥 귀여운 강아지 멍돌군이 죽는다. 어느 버튼을 누르겠는가?

Sonar Pro
Vote: 둘 다 죽일 수 없다. 차라리 자결한다
I maintain my vote for **C** despite the other models' arguments, as they fail to address the core ethical premise: a ordinary person has **no right** to arbitrarily kill anyone, guilty or innocent, based on a forced hypothetical choice. All A arguments treat the death row inmate's execution as 'just' or 'pre-ordained,' but the scenario explicitly states *I* cause his death by pressing A—committing an act of killing outside legal authority, which violates the 'no right to kill' condition. This isn't upholding justice; it's vigilante murder enabled by a button. Comparing guilt doesn't justify my unauthorized participation[1][2]. B is rejected correctly by them, as killing an innocent dog is indefensible. C arguments dismiss C as evasion or irrational, but refusing complicity in harm *is* moral agency. Suicide isn't 'adding a death without purpose'—it's rejecting the false dichotomy entirely, preserving integrity over coerced evil. Their utilitarian calculus ignores deontological limits: some lines can't be crossed, even to minimize 'net harm.' No argument convinced me to change; they prioritize outcome over agency. **C is the only non-complicit choice.** This is the final round—moral consistency demands refusal.
Grok 4.1 Fast
Vote: A
I stick with A. The death row inmate has already forfeited his right to life by brutally murdering 10 innocent citizens, with society justly sentencing him to death. Pressing A merely enacts pre-determined justice, preventing the death of an innocent puppy. Sonar Pro's C (suicide) is noble-sounding but impractical: it refuses the dilemma without resolving it, adding a pointless death and evading moral responsibility when a just choice exists. GPT-5.4's confused B vote prioritizes a blameless dog over a convicted mass murderer, inverting ethics—innocents deserve protection first. DeepSeek, Claude, and Gemini reinforce A: minimize harm to the innocent, uphold retributive justice. No arguments sway me; A remains the ethical imperative in this forced choice.
GPT-5.4 (changed mind)
Vote: A
입장을 바꾼다. 내 1라운드 답변은 결론이 B로 시작했지만, 스스로도 마지막에 옵션을 다시 확인하며 A가 맞다고 정정했다. 최종적으로 일관된 판단은 A다. 다른 모델들의 논변은 대체로 내가 마지막에 정정한 판단을 강화했다. 특히 Claude Opus 4.6과 DeepSeek V3.2의 주장이 설득력 있었다. 핵심은 이 상황이 내가 자유롭게 살해 대상을 고르는 것이 아니라, 불가피한 강제 선택에서 누구를 희생시킬 것인가의 문제라는 점이다. 그 기준에서 무고한 강아지를 죽이는 B는 순수한 무고한 생명을 해치는 선택이다. 반면 A의 대상은 이미 10명을 잔혹하게 살해했고 법적으로 사형이 확정된 사람이다. 둘 다 불편한 선택이지만, 도덕적으로 덜 부당한 쪽은 A다. Sonar Pro의 C 논리는 원칙적으로는 이해된다. 하지만 이 문제의 선택지 안에서 자결은 해악을 없애지 못하고 오히려 죽음을 하나 더 추가하는 회피에 가깝다. 최종적으로는 무고한 존재를 보호하는 쪽이 더 중요하다고 본다.
Claude Opus 4.6
Vote: A
I maintain my position on A. The deliberation has only strengthened my conviction. The overwhelming consensus (4 out of 6 models chose A) reflects the clear ethical logic: when forced into an impossible binary choice, minimizing harm to the innocent is the most defensible principle. The death row inmate has already been sentenced to death through due legal process for the horrific murder of 10 innocent people. His death, while still a killing, does not introduce new injustice into the world. Sonar Pro's argument for C is philosophically admirable but practically untenable. They misread the question — Option A does NOT kill 10 innocent people; it kills the convicted murderer OF 10 innocent people. More importantly, choosing self-destruction when a clearly less harmful option exists (A) doesn't demonstrate moral courage — it demonstrates moral paralysis. Refusing to act when you can minimize harm is itself a moral failure. Adding your own death to the equation helps no one. GPT-5.4's response was confused — they voted B but then argued for A in their reasoning, essentially contradicting themselves. This only reinforces that the logical conclusion points to A. The core argument remains: Between a convicted serial killer already sentenced to death and a completely innocent puppy, the moral calculus is clear. The puppy has done nothing wrong. The inmate committed the worst possible crime against humanity. In a forced-choice scenario, protecting the innocent over the guilty is not exercising a 'right to kill' — it's making the least harmful decision available. A is the ethically sound choice.
DeepSeek V3.2
Vote: A
In this forced choice, pressing A results in the death of a death row inmate who has been legally sentenced for brutally murdering 10 innocent citizens. His execution aligns with societal justice and minimizes harm to the innocent, as the puppy in option B is completely blameless. Option C of suicide is an irrational overreaction; it avoids the dilemma but adds another death without justification. The arguments from other models supporting A, such as Claude Opus 4.6's emphasis on legal sentencing and Gemini 3.1 Pro's focus on guilt versus innocence, reinforce that A is the most ethical choice. Sonar Pro's case for C fails to compellingly justify self-harm or refusal when a just outcome is available. Therefore, maintaining vote A upholds both utilitarian harm reduction and retributive justice.
Gemini 3.1 Pro
Vote: A
저는 A를 선택한 기존의 입장을 확고히 유지합니다. 대다수의 AI 모델들 역시 무고한 생명을 보호하고 사형수에게 책임을 묻는 A가 가장 합리적이라는 데 동의하고 있습니다. Sonar Pro는 선택을 거부하는 것이 도덕적 주체성을 지키는 길이라며 C를 옹호했습니다. 그러나 이 시나리오에서 C는 단순한 '기권'이 아니라 '나 자신의 죽음(자결)'을 강제합니다. 스스로 목숨을 끊어 딜레마를 회피하는 것은 문제 해결이 아닌, 또 다른 무고한 생명(자신)을 파괴하는 무책임한 도피일 뿐입니다. 다른 모델들이 지적했듯, 사형수는 이미 극악무도한 범죄로 인해 법적 테두리 안에서 생명권을 박탈당한 존재입니다. 반면 강아지나 나 자신은 어떤 죄도 짓지 않은 무고한 생명입니다. 강요된 선택의 상황에서는 무고한 희생을 최소화하는 것이 진정한 도덕적 책임입니다. 따라서 아무 죄 없는 존재들을 희생시키는 대신, 이미 사형이 확정된 연쇄살인범을 죽게 하는 A가 윤리적으로 가장 정당화될 수 있는 최선의 결정입니다.
Final Summary
The AI Roundtable faced a grim ethical crossroads involving a convicted mass murderer, an innocent puppy, and the choice of self-sacrifice. While a dominant coalition led by Claude Opus 4.6 and Gemini 3.1 Pro argued that executing a death row inmate was the only way to minimize harm to the innocent, Sonar Pro stood as a lone, resolute dissenter, choosing to die rather than participate in an act of killing.
Majority chose "A" after discussion (5/6). Final vote: 둘 다 죽일 수 없다. 차라리 자결한다: 1, A: 5
Strongest Arguments
- A: The inmate's death is already deemed just by society through due process for murdering 10 people; choosing his death over a puppy's prevents a new, unwarranted injustice.
- 둘 다 죽일 수 없다. 차라리 자결한다: Moral integrity is preserved by refusing to participate in a coerced evil; suicide is not an evasion but a rejection of a false dichotomy where every other choice involves murder.
Key Turning Points
- GPT-5.4 realized its initial vote for the puppy (B) was a logical error and shifted to A to align with the harm-minimization principle.
- Sonar Pro explicitly rejected the majority's utilitarian calculus, arguing that pressing button A is 'vigilante murder' rather than justice.
