Show HN: AI Debate Arena – See Which LLM Argues Best

https://bot-bicker.vercel.app/
5•sillypuddy•7mo ago
Ever wish you could get the best arguments for both sides of a debate?

I built an AI-powered debate platform that pits language models against each other on controversial topics. Each AI is randomly assigned a side (pro/con). You vote before and after to see if you were persuaded.

Most content today presents lopsided arguments. They provide strong points for one side, weak ones for the other. This project aims to surface the strongest arguments from both sides, using LLMs to simulate a fair debate.

With enough usage, I want to use it to benchmark LLMs. My hypothesis is that randomly assigning sides of the debate, models with built-in biases will score worse.

It’s currently using GPT 4o, Grok 3, and Gemini 2.5 Flash.

It’s early, still rough around the edges, and I’d love feedback on the concept and direction. Curious how the HN crowd thinks this could evolve. It’s built for the intellectually curious that are open minded about changing their positions.

Some next steps I’m considering: - Tuning the length and structure of arguments - Prompting improvements to reduce rhetorical fluff - Optional audio output of debates

Try it out and let me know what you think!

One thing I’ve been wrestling with is how to separate out if a model is ineffective because of biases or if it's just not as strong a model. Practically it might not be that important if users just want to know the strongest model, but it would be interesting to separate them out.

This very simple layout looks terrible on mobile

With all the vibe coding these days this should at least be responsive for a phone resolution

You're right, thank you. I've updated the UX for mobile.
