nuclear holocaust is inevitable in the long term. as long as a conflict becomes important enough to not be fought by proxy, then of course both parties are going to utilize their entire arsenal like in every other great war effort in history.
my question is, what kind of institution or rethinking of the way we do global politics would be required to not let it happen again/at all?
AI
If we can do it Iain Banks style and not pic related.

what exactly are you suggesting the AI to do? replace the entire government?
>>3338715
Yes and no. Administration should be left to AI while humans should still have a large roll to play. I am just a brainlet on 4chan, but I think if we can figure out how to make us mutually benefit from each other. AI continues to live, we continue to live. We explore together. God made us to make AI right?

Best hope for mankind is for civil defense programs and fallout shelter building construction to begin anew. The Soviets never believed in MAD, but in a winnable nuclear war. MAD is a delusional Western concept that could cost millions of lives if allowed to continue.

>On 11 July 1934 the headline on the front page of the New York Times read, "TESLA, AT 78, BARES NEW 'DEATH BEAM.'" The article reported that the new invention "will send concentrated beams of particles through the free air, of such tremendous energy that they will bring down a fleet of 10,000 enemy airplanes at a distance of 250 miles..." Tesla stated that the death beam would make war impossible by offering every country an "invisible Chinese wall."
>His system required a series of power plants located along a country's coast that would scan the skies in search of enemy aircraft. Since the beam was projected in a straight line, it was only effective for about 200 miles — the distance of the curvature of the earth.

the cold war's peaceful resolution would suggest otherwise

We were lucky that for the first few decades of this threat nobody was insane or desperate enough to use it.
Doesn't mean it stays that way and is arguably more likely to happen than not.
Once some conflict threatens the existence of a nuclear power, they will be used.
