The Lancet Commission warns of 17 global health threats to humanity

The Lancet Commission global health threats artificial intelligence misuse nuclear conflict disability-adjusted life years

A commission of 35 experts convened by The Lancet has identified 17 interconnected catastrophic threats to human health and prosperity through the year 2100. The report singles out the malicious use of artificial intelligence—including the development of biological weapons—and nuclear conflict as the two primary risks capable of driving human extinction.

While the probability of extinction remains low, the potential consequences are described as apocalyptic. A nuclear war could trigger widespread famine by blocking sunlight through atmospheric particles, while AI misuse could facilitate the creation of super-pathogens.

Other major threats identified include climate change, air pollution, antimicrobial resistance, obesity, childhood malnutrition, and declining international health assistance. The commission used Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) to measure the impact of these risks. For instance, obesity could account for 23.1 billion DALYs lost by 2100, whereas limiting global warming to 1.8 degrees Celsius could prevent 1.89 billion lost healthy life years. Experts emphasize that while the scale of these threats is immense, humanity still possesses the agency to act through decisive policy and international cooperation.
