In a frighteningly realistic simulation, Japan has shown in a new AI video the catastrophic consequences that could ensue if Mount Fuji were to erupt. The visual effects created by the Ministry of the Environment and Tokyo VAIO City Project predict a dire doomsday scenario.
The video depicts the volcano exploding in a column of fire and ash, which then spreads across the sky, blotting out the sun and coating the city of Tokyo in a thick layer of ash within just two hours. The simulation includes a desperate scenario of panic, chaos, and total disruption of transportation networks in the capital. The height of the plume is estimated to be around 320,000 feet, nearly the height of NASA's asteroid impact simulation.
This serves as a reminder of the devastating power of nature and underlines the importance of preparedness. It serves as a wake-up call for city planners and policymakers. Experts hope this would spur authorities to prioritize contingency plans for evacuation and emergency response.
In the hypothetical scenario depicted in the video, it remains to be seen how Japanese residents would respond to such a catastrophic event. Would the nation band together or devolve into masses of panicked individuals seeking escape? The outcome rests in the hands of preparedness planners.
