The end of the clock, symbolizing how humanity is destroyed, moved from 89 seconds ago to midnight to midnight.
The bulletin board of the atomic scientist (BAS), which sets the clock every year, said that the potential misuse of nuclear threats, biology and artificial intelligence, and climate change are the main factors.
Daniel Holz, the chairman of Bulletin’s Science Security Committee, said that the recent movement was “warning to all world leaders.”
The clock was originally deployed at midnight in 1947. Last year, it did not change to 90 seconds.
In a Tuesday statement, BAS, a non -profit organization based in Chicago, said: “When you set up a clock for nearly 1 second at midnight, we send a stock signal.
“Because the world is already dangerous to the cliff, even a second movement must be considered a severe risk, and it must be warned as the possibility of global disasters increases every two seconds to reverse the course.”
He warned that the continued war in Ukraine was close to the three -year mark after Russia’s invasion.
“Conflicts in the Middle East are threatened to control them with wider wars without warning,” the statement said.
The scientist panel also said, “The long -term prognosis of the world to deal with climate change is still poor because most governments do not enact funding and policy initiatives necessary to stop global warming.”
BAS continued in the biological field that “emerging and extinctions continue to threaten the world’s economy, society and security.”
He also warned that “another destructive technology developed last year by making the world more dangerous last year.”
“A system that integrates artificial intelligence into military targeting was used in Ukraine and the Middle East, and many countries are switching to integrate artificial intelligence into military.”
The organization emphasized that all these risks were “greatly deteriorated by a strong threat multiplier: the spread of false information, information and conspiracy theory that reduces the communication ecosystem and gradually blurs the boundaries between truth and false.” I did it.
BAS said that the United States, China and Russia have “collective power to destroy civilization.”
