9 个月Interesting perspective! While AI's ability to calculate outcomes and avoid unnecessary loss in warfare is appealing, we must remember that conflicts often stem from deeply rooted human narratives, values, and beliefs. Human biases and limited perspectives can escalate tensions. AI, free from such biases, could indeed offer rational decision-making. However, ensuring its deployment aligns with ethical standards and international law is crucial. Let's harness AI's potential wisely, always prioritizing peace and human welfare.
