Resolved: The United States federal government substantially reform the use of Artificial Intelligence technology
Negative teams, when they don’t have anything better to argue, often whine about “Quantification.” Whatever evidence you read in your AFF case, Negatives will argue that you didn’t “quantify” the harms or the advantages or something else, and that this failure to quantify justifies a NEG ballot. This brief gives you a list of responses you can use to defeat the “quantification” arguments. Not all of the may apply to every case or every round, so be sure to consider carefully which ones to use in any situation. But I recommend you use more than one, so that whichever ones they drop (most likely in the 1NR but possibly in 2NR), you can claim victory on those and not waste time having to think up responses and spending time on it in 1AR or 2AR. It’s unlikely a NEG will be able to respond to 3 or 4 or 5 of these, so you can win on whichever ones they don’t contest.
