Avertisment sumbru pentru omenire: un laureat Nobel spune că ne-ar mai rămâne maxim 50 de ani. Riscul care poate declanșa catastrofa
American physicist David Gross warns that humanity's chances of surviving the next 50 years are very low, primarily due to the risk of nuclear war. He believes the probability of such a conflict has increased beyond Cold War levels, estimating a 2% annual risk. Gross expresses concern over the growing number of nuclear-armed states and the degradation of international arms control treaties. He also highlights the dangers posed by hypersonic missiles and the increasing reliance on artificial intelligence in military systems, which could lead to unintended nuclear responses. The Doomsday Clock currently stands at 85 seconds to midnight, indicating a critical global situation.
