AI predicts global conflicts: Ex-Harvard professor's innovation
Former Harvard professor Arvid Bell is making waves with North Star, an AI-powered "peace tech" tool that simulates world leaders' decisions to forecast potential conflicts.
With global tensions running high, this kind of tech could be a game-changer for spotting trouble early.
How North Star works
North Star builds digital versions of world leaders to predict how they might react in tricky situations—like sanctions or negotiations.
This gives diplomats and policymakers a head start, so they can act before things spiral out of control.
Can AI help us avoid wars?
By helping spot flashpoints and misunderstandings before they escalate, North Star could make the world a bit more stable.
It's a fresh example of how AI isn't just about chatbots or self-driving cars—it could actually help prevent wars.
