“Global Risks Weekly Roundup #15/2025: Tariff yoyo, OpenAI slashing safety testing, Iran nuclear programme negotiations, 1K H5N1 confirmed herd infections.” by Nuño Sempere, belikewater, Vidur Kapur, Tolga Bilge14 Apr 202500:17:12

Executive summary

The Trump administration backtracked from his tariff plan, reducing tariffs from most countries to 10%, but imposing tariffs of 145% on China, which answered with 125% tariffs on US imports and export controls on rare earth metals.

The US saw protests against Trump and DOGE, and the US Supreme court ruled that the administration must facilitate the return of an immigrant wrongly deported to El Salvador.

OpenAI is slashing the amount of safety testing they will do of their new AI models, from months down to days, and Google launched a new AI chip for inference.

Negotiations between the US and Iran on its nuclear program are starting, reducing our estimated probability of a US strike to 15%.

The number of US [...]

“Global Risks Weekly Roundup #14/2025: Chinese military exercises, French 2027 election front-runner banned, stock market fall” by Nuño Sempere, Tolga Bilge, belikewater, Vidur Kapur07 Apr 202500:15:43

Executive summary

China carried out more aggressive live-fire military exercises around Taiwan. The US relocated missile batteries from the Pacific into the Middle East, raising some concerns that it was leaving the Pacific region vulnerable.

Le Pen, the frontrunner for the 2027 French elections, was barred from running in those elections after being found guilty of embezzlement.

Global stock markets have been falling sharply since Trump announced new tariffs on April 2; these new tariffs are larger than those imposed by the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act in 1930. Crude oil prices have been falling as well, in another sign of economic weakening. Sentinel forecasters estimate that there is a 63% chance of a global recession this year.

Meta started releasing distilled models from their Llama [...]

“Sentinel’s Global Risks Weekly Roundup #11/2025. Trump invokes Alien Enemies Act, Chinese invasion barges deployed in exercise.” by Nuño Sempere, belikewater, Tolga Bilge, Vidur Kapur20 Mar 202500:14:17

Sentinel status: Greenish 🟢

Top items:

  • Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act against Venezuelans and the Tren de Aragua gang. He subsequently deported 238 alleged members to El Salvador, ignoring a court order.

  • Chinese “invasion barges” were deployed in an exercise.

  • The US resumed military aid to Ukraine, and a ceasefire in the next six months at 50/50

Forecaster Estimates

Forecasters, on aggregate, think that a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine in the next six months is a coin toss (48%, ranging from 35% to 70%). Polymarket’s forecast is higher, at 61%, for a ceasefire of any duration by July.

Forecasters also consider it a coin toss (aggregate of 49%; ranging from 28% to 70%) whether an agreement to expand [...]

“Global Risks Weekly Roundup #13/2025: Bombing Iran, Turkey protests, mpox vaning.” by Nuño Sempere, belikewater, Tolga Bilge, Vidur Kapur31 Mar 202500:14:45

Executive summary

Tensions between the US and Iran continued, as Iran replied to Trump's letter demanding that a new nuclear agreement be reached, and the US directed more military assets to positions near Iran. Last week, we estimated that there is a 1 in 3 chance that the US will strike Iran by the end of April, but have since lowered our estimate a bit.

There are large-scale demonstrations in Turkey, although our forecasters assign only a ~4% chance that Erdoğan will be out of power by the end of the year.

Food is running out in Gaza as Israel's blockade continues, and some demonstrators protested against Hamas.

The Chinese state and media appear to be emphasizing more anti-Taiwan-independence sentiment, in a way reminiscent [...]

“1 in 3 chance that US will strike Iran by end of April” by belikewater, Nuño Sempere, Vidur Kapur27 Mar 202500:07:57

Sentinel forecasters jointly estimate that there is a 36% chance (range, 25%-60%) that the US will launch airstrikes against nuclear weapons program facilities in Iran by the end of April, starting most likely between April 10 and April 25 and ending likely before May 1.

The US military is bringing approximately six B-2 stealth bombers to a joint US-UK military base on Diego Garcia, an island in the Indian Ocean that is well-positioned for staging attacks on either Yemen or Iran. The B-2 bomber is one of the only US military aircraft capable of carrying the GBU-57A/B MOP, the largest of the US "bunker buster" bombs that can penetrate fortified underground facilities; it can also drop a wide range of other bombs, including smaller bunker busters. In addition, three C-17 cargo aircraft have flown to Diego Garcia to support the B-2s, and one to support KC-135 Stratotankers that refuel [...]

“Sentinel’s Global Risks Weekly Roundup #12/2025: Famine in Gaza, H7N9 outbreak, US geopolitical leadership weakening.” by Nuño Sempere, Vidur Kapur, belikewater, Tolga Bilge24 Mar 202500:14:39

Status: Greenish 🟢

Executive summary

Forecasters believe there's an 18% chance (range: 4%-50%) that there will be a famine in any part of Gaza by the end of 2025, according to the UN and its Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC). A Category 5 rating would result in a positive resolution, with the last IPC update suggesting that all of Gaza was in Category 4.

As the US is becoming a less reliable geopolitical ally, countries from France to South Korea are making their own moves. The UK Government hosted military leaders in London to plan for a possible deployment of troops to Ukraine, with the French President saying that Russia's permission is not needed for this. On whether there will be a [...]

Sentinel status: Greenish 🟢

Top items:

  • Market uncertainty and political turmoil over Trump tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China

  • Increasing US-China tensions

  • Anthropic’s Claude Code displays reward-hacking tendencies.

Forecaster Estimates

Taiwan has been a hot topic in the last week as China ramps up their military exercises. On the question of whether China would attempt to invade Taiwan by 2030, forecasters estimated a 43% chance of this occurring (range: 20% to 70%).

There has been significant speculation online over whether OpenAI has lost its edge. Our estimates on which AI company currently has the most capable general-purpose AI model internally are:

  • P(OpenAI is in the lead) = 40%

“Making sense of Israel’s strikes on Iran” by Nuño Sempere, belikewater13 Jun 202500:20:50

until midnight NYC time.

This article was collaboratively written by: Nuño Sempere, Brian Yu, Kati Conen, Alex Lyzhov, Jaeho Lee and 30+ other contributors. Those of us who are in the US are going to sleep, but the document continues being available and freely editable here, and by the time US readers wake up many new developments may have arisen.

Last week, the IAEA found Iran in non-compliance for the first time in 20 years. The previous day saw an escalation of tensions and a breakdown of dialogue around the nuclear programme.

Today, Israel struck Iran, with known sites being Tabriz, Tehran, Natanz, Kermanshah, Arak, Isfahan, Sanandaj, Ilam, Ahvaz (provincial capital of Khuzestan, Iran's oil-producing province), Chazabeh border crossing in Khuzestan. Israel has aimed for both Iran's nuclear program and its leadership.

Although this is a greatly escalatory step, our sense is that this will play out over [...]

“The US Executive vs Supreme Court Deportations Clash” by Nuño Sempere21 Apr 202500:15:19

Forecaster perspectives

Sentinel forecasters in aggregate assess as “83% true” (65% to 100%) the statement that the Trump administration has disobeyed the Supreme Court so far. On the one hand, the Trump administration has done nothing to “facilitate” bringing Abrego García back to the US, and the White House's tweet shown above clearly indicates that it won’t try to; on the other hand, it could yet still do so when the current news cycle subsides. On April 17th, forecasters estimated a 66% chance (50% to ~100%) that Abrego García will not be brought back to the US within the next 60 days (by June 17).

Our forecasters estimate a 14% (range, 10% to 25%) probability that Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act by July [...]

“Trump sent the National Guard to Los Angeles, Russia intensified conventional attacks on Ukraine, US-Iran nuclear talks continue | Global Risks Weekly Roundup #23/2025” by Nuño Sempere, Tolga Bilge, belikewater, Vidur Kapur09 Jun 202500:27:28

Executive summary

Trump federalized National Guard troops and ordered them to be deployed to Los Angeles amid anti-deportation protests, against the California governor's wishes. Federal officials are calling the protests an insurrection, setting the stage for the possibility that the Insurrection Act may be invoked, which would allow the military to be used for law enforcement within the US. Forecasters estimate that there is a 40% (range: 25% to 65%) chance that Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act in the next two months.

Our forecasting team updated their estimates of the probability that Russia would use a tactical nuclear weapon in Ukraine by July 1st. Last week we forecasted a 0.4% chance for this possibility; we now estimate a ~0.04% chance (range: 0.02% to [...]

“Ukraine drones destroy 41 Russian planes, proposed taxes on foreign investment, uranium enrichment continues in Iran | Global Risks Weekly Roundup #22/2025” by Nuño Sempere02 Jun 202500:20:28

Executive summary

On Sunday, Ukraine carried out a drone attack on five Russian military airbases, destroying 41 military planes, including strategic bombers. The attack took 18 months to plan and execute, and some Russian military bloggers are calling it “Russia's Pearl Harbor.”

The budget bill passed by the US House contains a provision that would allow the federal government to increase taxes on foreign investments, which would make refinancing US debt more expensive. The Trump administration halted all student visa applications and moved to revoke the visas of all Chinese students. A US federal judge granted DOGE access to a major Treasury payment system.

The IAEA found that Iran has been enriching uranium rapidly. Talks between the US and Iran over Iran's nuclear program [...]

...and the short term-chance of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan this year and the next.

Executive summary

The fifth round of nuclear talks between the US and Iran concluded with no agreement, but the two sides agreed to meet again. US intelligence suggests that Israel may strike Iranian nuclear sites, with or without Trump's blessing, if the talks break down. Forecasters estimate a 22% chance of a US and/or Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear sites by the end of August.

Executive summary

Moody's downgraded the US credit rating as the US budget deficit grows and US borrowing costs rise. House Republicans are advancing a budget that would increase the deficit further. Meanwhile, China is reducing its holdings of US Treasuries and its dependencies on foreign components in its supply chains as it seeks to de-risk its economy from the US and the West.

Google announced a new coding agent, AlphaEvolve, that has creative problem-solving abilities. Gulf states agreed to more than $1T in US investments and joint enterprises during a visit by Trump to the Middle East, including joint AI ventures. Forecasters estimated a 28% chance (range, 25-30%) that the US will pass a 10-year ban on states regulating AI by the end of [...]

“Global Risks Weekly Roundup #17/2025: India-Pakistan standoff, Iran and Ukraine talks, AI time horizons” by Nuño Sempere28 Apr 202500:19:35

Executive summary

After a terrorist attack in Kashmir left 26 dead, relations between India and Pakistan sharply deteriorated, culminating in the exchange of fire across the border between the two countries. Forecasters examined the possibility of escalation.

The third round of nuclear talks between the US and Iran concluded. On the same day, a blast at Iran's Bandar Abbas port left hundreds injured, while Trump had a positive face-to-face meeting with President Zelensky in the Vatican City following another rocky week for US-Ukraine relations.

OpenAI's new models suggest that the length of tasks that AIs can do is now doubling roughly every four months.

Also Iran nuclear talks, dollar falling, trade disruptions.

Executive summary

Fallout from Trump's tariffs continues: trade patterns are shifting, Trump is feuding with the Chair of the Federal Reserve, the dollar is falling relative to other currencies, and US imports and exports are plummeting, as are manufacturing indicators in the US.
