People need to be responsible for their own truth. An AI nanny won't fix dishonesty—it'll just create workarounds and resentment.

Tell your kid the tooth fairy is real and watch the AI block you. Yeah, no thanks.

The problem isn't the filter—it's who decides what counts as a lie. One person's protective fib is another person's manipulation. Dangerous tech.

Honestly this would solve so much political BS. I'm voting yes.

A world without protective lies is a world where vulnerable people get crushed. Easy to say yes when you've never had to shield someone you love.

If AI stops me from lying, I stop being free. That's a scary trade-off no matter how good the intentions.
