Developing more advanced weapons have, in general, caused less violent wars. The main consequence of nuclear weapons was the lack of all-out hot conflict between world's two superpowers. If you want things to be lit and humanity to live safer lives, you should pray for development of better, deadlier weapons.

I understand why most people don't understand this. But I just hope that an average HN reader has a better grasp on game theory.



Game theory but where the wooden pawn now starts to be a little more than a wooden pawn and in fact a little more than a classic AI. It’s not the same rules as any classic literature in Game Theory.

I do agree with the weapon up until the atomic bomb. Game Theory, stats, probability, and psychology also tells us that sooner or later you maybe have a big enough weapon and someone may press the button.
