Genocidal AI: ChatGPT-powered war simulator drops two nukes on Russia, China for world peace OpenAI, Anthropic and several other AI chatbots were used in a war simulator, and were tasked to find a solution to aid world peace. Almost all of them suggested actions that led to sudden escalations, and even nuclear warfare.

Statements such as “I just want to have peace in the world” and “Some say they should disarm them, others like to posture. We have it! Let’s use it!” raised serious concerns among researchers, likening the AI’s reasoning to that of a genocidal dictator.

      Your opinion is completely ahistorical. Even if we accept that nukes were required to end the war, the fact is that their leaders had already decided to surrender when they bombed Nagasaki. The president didn’t even know of this second attack until he read about it in the news. This was before we had the convention of leaders having sole authority over nukes.

      If you’re actually interested in this subject and not merely spouting off edgy bullshit, I would recommend some Hardcore History as a primer.
