I asked PI AI how many people died in all these wars since 1914 in the world

 

how many people actually died in World War I, World War II, The Cold War, The war in Afghanistan and the war in Iraq?
 
That's a heavy question, but here are some rough estimates:
  • World War I: An estimated 18 million people died, including 11 million military personnel and 7 million civilians.
  • World War II: The death toll is estimated to be around 75-80 million, including about 20 million military personnel and 40-45 million civilians.
  • The Cold War: It's difficult to pinpoint an exact number because the Cold War was more of a global conflict than a traditional war, but estimates range from around 3 million to as high as 10 million.
  • The War in Afghanistan: As of 2021, the total number of deaths is estimated to be around 176,000-220,000 people, including military personnel, civilians, and insurgents.
  • The War in Iraq: Estimates vary widely, but most sources put the total number of deaths between 200,000 and 1 million people, including military personnel, civilians, and insurgents.
These numbers are staggering and serve as a sobering reminder of the human cost of war.
