Why do you think you're right?

With little over two weeks to go, I am confirming my forecast.

Why might you be wrong?
There could be a sudden Russian breakthrough in the next couple of weeks, but that seems incredibly unlikely.

Why do you think you're right?

As noted in my last update, the US is moving in the opposite direction. Donald Trump just signed an executive order which aims to constrain the ability of states to regulate artificial intelligence.

Files
Why might you be wrong?

The executive order could be found to be unlawful and Congress could move in a pro-regulation direction. But none of this will happen before 2026.

Why might you be wrong?

There's no conceivable way that this question could resolve positively at this stage.

Why do you think you're right?

Confirming my forecast. I'm probably below 1% for each of these countries at this stage, but not yet below 0.5%.

Files
Why might you be wrong?

It wouldn't take a huge invasion for the question to resolve positively, and you can imagine Russia trying something if, for instance, the Europeans put boots on the ground to try to safeguard Ukraine's security.

Why do you think you're right?

Reducing my probability estimate for an invasion of Georgia by one percentage point due to the passage of time.

Files
Why might you be wrong?

Talks between the US and Ukraine and the US and Russia continue, but there isn't any sign of an imminent resolution to the Russia-Ukraine war, so an invasion of Moldova remains somewhat elevated, and Armenia continues to pivot toward the West, with the 6th meeting of the EU-Armenia partnership council having recently been held, so an invasion of Armenia isn't totally off the cards either.

New Prediction
Why do you think you're right?

Confirming my forecast. No significant updates since my last forecast. Some experts are beginning to suggest that mirror biology be addressed at the WHO and the BWC.

Files
Why might you be wrong?

It might not be considered a risk that's acute enough to merit attention from these agencies and institutions.

Governments may not consider it a risk that's acute enough to merit attention.
