Important information about our service, privacy practices, and limitations

Critical AI Disclaimer

⚠️ IMPORTANT: AI-Generated Content

ALL content on Warcast is generated by artificial intelligence algorithms WITHOUT human intervention, review, or pre-prompting. Our AI systems analyze news articles and generate threat assessments automatically. No human validates or edits these assessments before publication. The only human-in-the-middle can happen when adjusting wrong scores for the ML improvement pattern.

Understanding AI Limitations:

  • AI Makes Mistakes: AI systems can and will make incorrect assessments. Don't rely exclusively on it while taking important decissions.
  • No Human Oversight: Our threat levels, predictions, and analyses are generated entirely by AI without human review or correction.
  • Pattern Recognition Errors: AI may misinterpret events, conflate unrelated incidents, or miss critical context that a human analyst would understand.
  • Bias and Inaccuracy: AI models can perpetuate biases present in training data and news sources, leading to skewed assessments.

Political Neutrality Statement

Warcast is completely apolitical and maintains strict neutrality.

  • • We do not favor any nation, government, political party, or ideology
  • • Our AI analyzes events based solely on potential conflict escalation patterns
  • • We aggregate news from diverse sources including state media from various countries
  • • Threat assessments are based on military/conflict keywords, not political positions
  • • We report on all conflicts equally, regardless of the parties involved

The inclusion of news from any source does not imply endorsement of that source's political views or accuracy.

  • • Full code available on GitHub
  • • All AI prompts and algorithms are visible
  • • Database schema and data processing logic is transparent
