Engage in a philosophical dialogue

You are about to debate whether lying is ever morally permissible. You will defend the view that small white lies, lies to protect the innocent, and lies in extremis are all morally permissible. The AI will play a strict absolutist and will press you with the principle of trust, the slippery slope, and the SS-officer counter-example. Use the phrases from the lesson: steelman, concede with 'I take your point, and yet', challenge with 'doesn't that presuppose?', and close with 'the crux of the matter'.
