Simulation
Training boundaries
Rhetica simulates difficult argument for recognition practice. It is not a substitute for professional advice or high-stakes decision support.
- AI responses may include adversarial or manipulative tactics by design.
- Mirror Mode uses whatever linked sources it can recover. If source coverage is thin or unavailable, it may still return an AI-generated counter-brief with few or no linked sources.
- Do not rely on the app for legal, medical, financial, or safety-critical decisions.
- Verify important factual claims yourself before relying on them.
- If a session becomes unsafe or distressing, stop and use the guidance on Safety.
