ICAN Warns AI and Nuclear Weapons Push World to Existential Brink

Speaking at the Global Nobel Laureates Assembly in Castel Gandolfo, ICAN Executive Director Melissa Parke warned that artificial intelligence is amplifying nuclear risks amid collapsing arms control agreements and a new global arms race. The convergence of AI-driven warfare, nuclear proliferation, and international instability mirrors the biblical description of the last days as a time of unprecedented peril and 'wars and rumours of wars.' Jesus warned that the end times would be marked by such catastrophic potential that unless those days were cut short, no flesh would survive — a scenario now technically conceivable for the first time in history (Matthew 24:6, 22).
