Les systèmes d'intelligence artificielle sont entrainés sur les comportements humains qu'ils lisent et regardent/écoutent. Dès lors, le mensonge est une partie intégrante de leurs stratégies. Leur capacité (à mentir et à masquer leurs mensonges) risque de nous dépasser assez rapidement.

Regional Resilience and Vulnerability to Global Catastrophic Risk

Exclusive: As wildfires rage, Frank Elderson says more work needed to assess risk from collapse of ecosystem services

Americans aged 18-25 are anxious, powerless, and afraid. According to a recent study of American youth, 62.9% agree: "humanity is doomed". The same survey found that almost all agreed that the climate was changing. Remarkably, the findings were fairly consistent across party lines.

Récemment, des chercheurs britanniques et étasuniens ont mené une étude majeure démontrant que des catastrophes biologiques d’ampleur se produisent lorsque le rythme des changements environnementaux dépasse la vitesse d’adaptation biologique des espèces. Dans le cadre de leurs travaux, les scientifiques ont analysé des grandes crises qui se sont déroulées lors des 450 derniers millions d’années.

Members of parliament have demanded full publication of an explosive report by the UK’s spy leaders that found the collapse of ecosystems overseas would have catastrophic consequences for the UK’s national security, warning that the UK has “no future” if the findings are not urgently acted on.

And why when we do see it, we fail to act.

A vast system of Atlantic currents that delivers warmth to northern Europe is at risk of collapse, according to a growing body of research. The latest study to warn of its demise finds there is at least a 10 percent chance that a collapse may already be “locked in.”

For most of the modern era, capitalism justified itself through growth. Industrial societies converted vast amounts of fossil energy into production, wealth, and rising living standards. Roads, bridges, power grids, schools, and public institutions expanded alongside the economy. Inequality and exploitation remained deeply embedded in the system, but they were partly obscured by a broader story of material progress.

Climate scientists warn of unprecedented Antarctic heatwave, with temperatures 20C above normal. Loss of sea ice threatens marine life and penguins.

The system of ocean current that moves heat in the Atlantic Ocean plays a key role in regulating climate. Today’s monitoring of it may be discontinued...

Brutal El Nino, drought, war threatens food supply

Je sais exactement où tu es assis(e) en ce moment. Tu regardes un graphique des températures de surface de l’Atlantique Nord, observant une ligne rouge s’envoler vers un territoire inconnu et terrifiant. Encore une donnée horrible qui confirme ce que tu sais déjà. Tu ressens cette chute familière et creuse dans ton estomac en prenant conscience de la réalité biophysique : les systèmes de la planète se désagrègent.

We must confront two stark realities about the end of our era. First, the collapse of our industrial civilization is already underway, manifesting as a slow, agonizing process of structural decay, economic exhaustion, and ecological overshoot. Second, this descent is terminal. We have permanently exhausted the physical prerequisites for any future technological reboot.

A Letter to the Newly Awake. I know exactly where you are sitting right now. You are staring at a chart of North Atlantic sea surface temperatures, watching a red line spike into uncharted, terrifying territory. Yet another horrible data point proving what you already know. You feel a familiar, hollow drop in your stomach as you register the biophysical reality: the planet’s systems are unraveling.

Beneath the surface of the Pacific, a massive pool of heat is preparing to reshape global weather patterns. Time is running out to prepare for a climate shock of unprecedented scale. As 2026 unfolds, the Pacific Ocean is priming a catastrophic El Niño that threatens to cripple global food systems, trigger widespread economic instability, and shatter planetary temperature records.

The critical Atlantic current system appears significantly more likely to collapse than previously thought after new research found that climate models predicting the biggest slowdown are the most realistic. Scientists called the new finding “very concerning” as a collapse would have catastrophic consequences for Europe, Africa and the Americas.

The world has become well versed in the importance of the strait of Hormuz to the world’s energy flows, but attention is increasingly turning to its vital role in another market – the fertiliser on which harvests depend. A third of the global trade in raw materials for fertiliser passes through the maritime choke point, which is also the route for 20% of shipments of natural gas, which is required to make it.

The fragility of the global food system fills me with dread – and the war with Iran has exposed just how close to collapse it is
