Global Threats, Including Climate Change and AI, Keep World on the Brink of Disaster
For the third consecutive year, the Doomsday Clock remains set at 100 seconds to midnight, symbolizing the looming threat of global catastrophe. Scientists have indicated that the world is “no safer” than it was a year ago, citing persistent dangers such as climate change, advances in biotechnology, and the rise of artificial intelligence.
The decision to maintain this position reflects the ongoing urgency of these threats, with political instability and environmental crises continuing to pose significant risks to global security. Experts warn that the convergence of these factors keeps humanity on the edge of a potential apocalypse.
