Abstract
In this article I discuss possible applications of some of these advanced AI technologies in the peace building and conflict resolution field. Second, AI can lead to new concepts of peacebuilding like creating conflict transformation and cooperation between dissimilar parties/actors. But AI can help to assimilate such large volume of data in making communication more real time it is practicable that it could encourage dialogue and the building of consensus in conflict situations which might enable better peace dividends. AI tools promote greater inclusion because there are so few physical barriers such as those imposed by traditional dialogue processes and therefore more voices can be brought more easily into the process of building peace. Working on the statistics, analysis and simulations offered by the AI technology, it is possible for these actors to adopt proactive strategies to solve conflicts in short term/offer sustainable and resilient long-term solutions on stricken communities. The paper will call for the responsible use of opportunities "born" out of AI for peace, stating that it has to find a “balance” between commercial opportunities and risks associated with AI. If done responsibly, leveraging AI for peacebuilding could fundamentally change the way in which peace is built and achieve a more sustainable and equitable end to conflict.
