World Faces Unprecedented Instability Amidst Wars, AI Threats, and Climate Crisis

New York. The world appears to be going out of control. The two major wars in the world (the ongoing wars in Iran and Ukraine) are no longer limited in scope. Experts are warning of a 'catastrophic' situation where AI could end human civilization. Rising energy prices are shaking industrial economies affected by inequality. Floods, wildfires, and extreme heat are exacerbating the climate crisis.

Meanwhile, global institutions that have long worked for comparative stability are weakening. The United Nations, where world leaders gathered this week, also appears to be ineffective as powerful leaders disregard its values such as democracy, human rights, and international cooperation.
