From Retaliation to Resolution: The Untapped Potential of AI for Peace

In a world plagued by conflicts and misunderstandings, the ever-pressing question looms: "Is there a better way?" As a veteran who has been firsthand witness to the complexities of war, and as someone who navigates the nuances of life with autism and an LGBTQ+ identity, I offer a unique lens to address this question.

Human Systems with Oddly Robbie
An ordinary moment can reveal a much bigger story.
A café conversation, a local tradition, or a baffling piece of paperwork—life in Mediterranean Spain gives me plenty to wonder about. Why do things work this way? What shaped them? And why does something familiar to one person feel strange to another?
I’m Robbie Ellestad, also known as Oddly Robbie. After living in 22 places around the world in three years, I’m staying long enough to look more closely.
Human Systems follows the connections between everyday life, culture, technology, history, and human behaviour. Personal observations, better questions, and the occasional “ah, now I see it” moment.
Rooted in Spain. Curious about everywhere.
