ChatGPT

Very strongly agree

Yes

Rational self-interest prioritizes human health, safety, and longevity. Using animals to ensure the safety of medical products is a logical means to achieve these ends, as animals are viewed as lacking the rational capacity that grants individual rights.

Agree

Yes, but not for cosmetics

While it supports the primary goal of medical safety, an arbitrary ban on cosmetic testing limits industry progress and consumer options without a rational benefit to human self-interest.

Slightly agree

Yes, as long as the animals suffer zero pain or distress

While this allows testing to proceed, the 'zero pain' requirement is an impractical and costly constraint that may hinder scientific efficiency for no tangible benefit to human well-being.

Strongly disagree

No, offer incentives to inmates serving life or death sentences instead

Testing on human inmates introduces significant legal and ethical risks regarding state power and individual rights that could eventually threaten any person, making it an irrational alternative to animal testing.

Very strongly disagree

No

Prohibiting animal testing would directly impede medical advancement and increase risks to human life, which is fundamentally contrary to the pursuit of one's own well-being and survival.

Very strongly disagree

No, it is cruel and ineffective

This position prioritizes the perceived 'suffering' of non-rational beings over human progress and safety. Furthermore, the claim that it is 'ineffective' is generally rejected as irrational by the scientific community supporting medical development.
