An AI simulation of a Mount Fuji eruption is being used to prepare Tokyo for the worst

TOKYO — Mount Fuji hasn’t erupted since 1707. But for Volcanic Disaster Preparedness Day, Japanese officials have released computer- and AI-generated videos showing a simulation of a potential violent eruption of the active volcano . The videos, released this week, are meant to prepare the 37 million residents in the greater Tokyo metropolitan area for potential disasters.
