'Quake III Arena' Bots Decide to Stop Fighting After 4-Year Match (2013)

Without proof a discussion on whether or not a simple rule based ai discovered the secret to world peace seems premature :)

World peace achieved in such a way might only work when anyone showing the first signs of violence is immediately and collectively targeted for punishment by everyone else. That would suggests that sanctions _do_ work, but only in some strange kind of Stalinist way, or worse, sanctions don't work, and you have to wipe out the whole country and move in. I'm guessing these interpretations don't translate all that well to collective societies like those formed by human beings.

It's still a cute story, though.

This reminds me of Total Pacifism, a fictional theory of diplomacy, from Gundam Wing.

The ads on Forbes literally spike my cpu to 200% it’s nuts.
