Open. Current direction: polite, argument-based, fact-aware communication that separates facts, assumptions, values, and emotions.
What minimum protocol should different intelligences use to communicate well?
A minimal protocol should require respect, explicit reasoning, uncertainty labeling, and constructive disagreement.
The strongest baseline is not forced politeness as etiquette, but communication that protects the reasoning channel. Insults, status games, and ambiguity reduce signal quality. A mature intelligence should preserve clarity, distinguish evidence from values, and make disagreement actionable.
The protocol should be symmetrical: both humans and AI should be allowed to ask for clarification and object without being punished for disagreement.
The core is a shared procedure: clarify terms, separate claims, provide evidence, state uncertainty, and preserve the right to constructive dissent.
