BO2 released in 2012, and now we’re here. If it’s not particularly hard for you to predict the future, what will be the major military and geopolitical trends of the next 13 years Nostrachadmus?
Drone warfare will be the primary form of warfare (ie automation will continue to become more prevalent), Haiti will still be in crisis, China and the US will still be competing for military dominance, China will still have a disproportionate amount of rare earth metals (that one isn’t even a trend really, just describing geography), and states will continue to call terrorists freedom fighters whenever their goals align.
So, basically, the same trends that have been ongoing since the cold war will continue to be trends, Nostrasmartass.
Considering there have been a handful of “AI” products that really were just “remote controlled/monitored by Indian workers”… (see Amazon automaic grocery store, college campus meal delivery drones)
India becomes a world power when everyone finds out that all the AI controlled drones are really just a bunch of Indian guys teleworking.
China will still have a disproportionate amount of rare earth metals (that one isn’t even a trend really, just describing geography)
Actually, it’s not about geography. Rare-earth elements aren’t that rare, it’s just that they’re difficult to separate from each other and produces a lot of pollution. China’s the main exporter because they don’t care much about pollution and they undercut everyone else in the market to gain a monopoly over the years
Nostradamus was famous for making predictions vague enough that they were guaranteed to come true, FYI.
As for the “predictions”: Haiti facing a crisis is basically the history of Haiti, drones were already the future of warfare in 2012, China was already on the way to being the biggest producer of rare earth metals (along with a lot of things given all the outsourcing to China, plus there’s the size, population, and geology), “AI” targetting systems (read: computer assisted targeting) was already in development, and I’m not sure what the terrorist thing is but terrorists being called freedom fighters happen all the time.
While Nostrachadmus was known for making no predictions and mocking everybody else making semi-accurate predictions as something he could have done better himself. Nostrasmartass just mocked them all without claiming he could make any long-term predicions at all.

Shit uhhhh
And the US will bring back that program where they used pigeons to guide missiles

I mean, they used rat neurons to steer a (simulated) plane in one recent-ish experiment.

That’s pretty much the story for all the monopolies they have. They’re willing to subsidize and pollute.
The big issue is long term it means they’re also the ones with the most experience building/manufacturing certain things.

Past and future history is crazy.
