We must remain vigilant regarding the development and application of artificial intelligence in both military and civilian contexts, so that it does not remove human responsibility from decision-making or worsen the tragedy of conflicts. Events in Ukraine, Gaza and the Palestinian territories, Lebanon, and Iran describe the inhuman evolution of the relationship between war and new technologies, which creates a spiral of annihilation.

What kind of world are we leaving behind? Unfortunately, it is a world distorted by war and war-like language. This pollution of reason comes from the geopolitical sphere and invades every social relationship. Any simplification that creates enemies must be corrected, especially in universities, through complexity of thought and wise exercise of memory.
