"Hey everyone, great discussion today. I wanted to address the cases where translation doesn't help. Namely civil wars and local regional conflicts (e.g. Israel/Palestine and Russia/Ukraine). CIVIL WARS Yes, you're absolutely right that AI translation won't automatically help with civil wars. However, that goes outside the scope of "global peace" (I suppose I should have specified international conflict, rather than intranational). I do think that AI could go either way, increasing or decreasing the likelihood of civil war, but that's a topic for another video. REGIONAL CONFLICTS Here's where I disagree with some of the comments. One of the biggest reasons there's so much misinformation and disinformation about places like Russia and Israel is because of language barriers between the locals and the international community. There are SO MANY videos where the captions or subtitles are mistranslated (deliberately or accidentally) but that leaves room for people to spin the videos however they want, inventing context. Furthermore, it's harder to get a clear picture since most of the people involved in these conflicts don't speak English (or French, or German, or Japanese, etc). So it's very hard to get first hand information in English (or any other preferred language) which means we have to rely on the gatekeepers of state speakers and mainstream media (both of which are less trustworthy than primary sources). But yeah, I could have mentioned this in the video but I didn't think of it until I saw the comments. Great convo, keep the conversation going!"
