Nuclear risks, climate change, potential pandemics and AI. The Doomsday Clock in Chicago ticks to 89 seconds to midnight, its closest position since it's inception 75 years ago.
Every year the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists come to Chicago to set the “Doomsday Clock” that is at the Keller Center at the University of Chicago.
Are you a believer in the 'Doomsday' clock? It moved one minute closer to midnight yesterday putting it at 11:55pm. The clock has been around since 1947 and it is a fugurative timepiece that marks how close we are to the apocalypse or the end.
