How would you judge this argument?
How does it actually work?
Every argument has the same skeleton: one or more premises offered as support, and a conclusion they are meant to establish. A logical fallacy is a break in that link — the conclusion does not actually follow, even when it sounds persuasive.
This matters more in the age of AI than ever. AI systems generate fluent, confident text that can contain every fallacy here. The defence is not memorising names — it is the habit of asking: do the premises really support this conclusion?
