Do you think Putin is crazy enough to start a Nuke war? He must be pretty upset he was going in Ukraine looking to win in a week and here we are a bit over 2 months later. The Ukraine people have a lot of courage.

Putin might get desperate enough to give the order, but I think other more sensible people would refuse to carry it out.

Putin has 2 daughters and grandchildren.
Hopefully that will stop him going nuclear.

As you said he has 2 daughters and grandchildren. I think it is a bluff on his part.

if he cares at all about progeny
that progeny will be stored like potatoes in a bunker so deep and well stocked that folks could live there for decades, possibly centuries
and make no mistake about it, those same sorts of facilities exist for the rich in the west, too

the rich have already prepared themselves for nuclear war
they seriously do not give a damn about people

It's a wonder world, and all they want to do is destroy it, for ever.

Oh, no. His inheritance - in his mind - is the resurgence of the Great Russian Empire, as it was in his beloved CCCP. Mere human beings are irrelevant, no matter how closely related to him, except for himself.

If they did, then the rich have wasted their time. There is no preparing for nuclear war
that will give lasting protection. Nuclear winter kills *everything*, not to mention radioactive fallout.

Can't live like that

Indeed. Who will dust and clean their bunkers for them?

(Of course, they would save money re: lawn and pool maintenance -- unless they have underground lawns and pools in their bunkers.)

If, toward the end of the year, one or more nation-states or corporations seems on the verge of placing their AI(s) on the global gameboard, it could be that some crowd-supported Aijus might be placed on the board first, for the sake of protecting the people of Earth and other sets of values.

Do you or don't you predict the placement of AIJUS - Artificial Intelligence for Justice?
