The apocalypse clock symbolizes how close humanity is that it has been transferred a second forward to 89 seconds to midnight – the nearest.
News from atomic scientists (BAS) – Establish annual clocks – nuclear threats, potential abuse of biological and artificial advances, as well as climate change. , are the main factors.
Daniel Holz, chairman of the news and security science council, said the latest move was “a warning to all world leaders”.
The clock was originally placed at seven minutes to midnight in 1947. Last year, it did not change in 90 seconds.
In the statement on Tuesday, BAS – a non -profit organization based in Chicago – said: “When we put the clock for a second closer to midnight, we send a clear signal.

The Council of Scientists also said that “long -term prognosis for the world’s efforts to deal with climate change is still poor, because most governments do not issue financial and financial initiatives and The policy necessary to prevent global warming. “
In the field of biology, BAS continues, “emerging and re -appearing diseases continue to threaten the economy, society and security of the world”.
It also warned that “a series of other breakthrough technologies have improved last year in ways to make the world more dangerous.”
“The systems of artificial intelligence in military targets have been used in Ukraine and the Middle East, and some countries are switching to integrating artificial intelligence into their army.”
