Artificial intelligence can offer many intriguing insights into the future if you ask it the right questions, yet its indication of the number one 'warning sign' that WWIII is on the way might begin to worry you.

Most people use AI to summarize documents, answer queries, and even generate complex images, yet it seemingly has an alluring ability to predict the future - or at least offer an educated guess at what could happen within certain circumstances.

People have enlisted the advice of an AI-powered Nostradamus and Baba Vanga to look into the years ahead of us with surprising results, and you can even try out a 'death clock' that lets you know what age you'll die and how it'll happen.

However, the threat of World War 3 is not only more widescale but also arguably far more imminent, and OpenAI's ChatGPT has issued its own indication of the warning signs that we should be on the lookout for.

When asked what the number one warning sign of an upcoming World War is, ChatGPT weighs up the debates of historians, analysts, and military experts to produce a clear answer:

"When multiple great powers are locked in escalating, unresolved conflict - with no clear way to back down."

Simplifying the warning signs even further, it illustrates that "the biggest red flag is the breakdown of diplomacy between nuclear or major military powers who are engaging in proxy wars, arms buildups, or territorial threats."

Essentially, if one of the world's leading military powers - which also typically coincide with those who posses nuclear weapons - has a major breakdown in relations, typically spurred on by a catalyst event, we could see the beginnings of another World War for the first time in nearly a century.

One of the major reasons why we've not seen warfare on the scale of the First or Second World War again though is through the invention and distribution of nuclear weapons, which act as a deterrent through their immense destructive powers.

However, certain triggers could force key nations to engage in direct warfare, which would then in turn pull in allied countries that are obliged to participate through treaty arrangements.

Looking specifically at conflicts that are currently ongoing, ChatGPT indicates that the most pressing 'red flag' that could lead to a new World War today is:

"If the U.S. and China (or Russia) move from economic + cyber warfare to direct military confrontation over Taiwan, Ukraine, or another hotspot. That would trigger global realignments, military escalation, and potentially drag in allies across the globe."

That worryingly appears to be more than capable of happening considering current events, and all it would likely take would be one major moment before tensions would reach breaking point.

"A lot of signs matter," ChatGPT continues, "but if you ever see major powers stop talking and start shooting, that's the moment the world changes."

If a new World War were to happen then it could cause devastating casualties across the globe too, as ChatGPT has also outlined a 'horrifying' death toll of between 50 and 100 million people if conflict was to break out.
