Russia's plague scare raises fears of converging catastrophic risks
Original: Russia’s plague scare: bioweapons, nukes, and AI – a new convergence of catastrophic risk
Russian authorities reported an isolated plague case, prompting quarantine measures and renewed alarm about biological threats. Commentators link the scare to wider concerns over bioweapons programmes, nuclear brinkmanship, and the unregulated use of artificial intelligence, arguing that Russia's war in Ukraine and its nuclear rhetoric have created a dangerous overlap of catastrophic risks that global institutions are struggling to monitor or contain.
Why now: A fresh plague scare in Russia has revived debate about bioweapons, nuclear threats and AI combining into new catastrophic risks.
