Is the world gonna end at some point in our lifetimes? By world ending, I mean humans going extinct due to some apocalyptic level event or happening. Scientifically is it inevitable? It feels like with climate change, viruses, and some other things that it's inevitably that the 21st century will be humanity's last.

Midwit detected. Neither of those things will lead to human extinction. If anything will lead to human extinction in the near future, it's AI.

It's basically a matter of time until somebody creates a doomsday virus (think of airborne rabies) that will wipe out most of us.

The thought that all of human development and scientific discovery is just gonna come to an end in a couple hundred years doesn't sit well with me. I wish that our existence here on earth could've be like a story, and have some kind of epic climax to it, but as far as I can tell that's not really going to be the case. I hope I'm wrong.

The way we are going, how people cope with uncertainty, coupled with the extent to which our economy is driven by algorithms, I highly doubt we will be able to see an end of the world scenario.

However, being highly certain of things one way or the other as in, being highly certain that everything in the world will stay ok or everything in the world will turn to complete shit is a total cope.

In the end, it doesn't really matter tho as we are all just coping about our place in the world.
