SaralnamaOn [25 [Aug 2025, Tokyo released an AI-generated video showing the possible effects of a Mount Fuji eruption. The video warns that volcanic ash could reach Tokyo within 1-2 hours, with up to 30 cm of ash falling in some areas. This ashfall could disrupt trains, planes, power lines, phone, and internet services, and make driving dangerous. The video aims to raise awareness and encourage people to prepare, such as keeping a two-week supply of essentials and sheltering at home. Experts say wooden houses might collapse if ash accumulates heavily, requiring evacuation. Although Mount Fuji has not erupted for over 300 years and no eruption is expected soon, the government wants to help people understand the risks and be ready. The video is the first time Tokyo used AI to simulate such a disaster and was released on Volcano Disaster Prevention Day. (Updated 28 Aug 2025, 12:16 IST; source: link)
