AI can now advise crisis negotiators on the 'perfect' words to use in real-time. These systems analyze speech patterns to suggest optimal de-escalation strategies based on vast datasets of past encounters.

We examine what is gained, and what might be lost, when a machine mediates a life-or-death conversation.
