Function that predicts how many years from now humanity might become extinct

predictHumanExtinction.js

Explanation:

  • Function Overview:

    • The predictHumanExtinction function predicts how many years from now humanity might become extinct. This function calculates the extinction year based on various factors.
  • Code Details:

    • Initialization:

      • extinctionYear is initialized by adding 10,000 years to the currentYear.
    • Adjustments Based on Factors:

      • extinctionYear is increased or decreased based on each factor in the factors object:

        • climateChangeSeverity: A value between 0 and 1. The extinction year decreases by up to 5,000 years depending on the severity of climate change.

        • globalConflictLevel: A value between 0 and 1. The extinction year decreases by up to 3,000 years based on the level of global conflict.

        • technologicalAdvancement: A value between 0 and 1. The extinction year increases by up to 2,000 years depending on the degree of technological advancement.

        • globalPandemicRisk: A value between 0 and 1. The extinction year decreases by up to 2,000 years based on the risk of a global pandemic.

        • aiRisk: A value between 0 and 1. The extinction year decreases by up to 3,000 years depending on the risks associated with artificial intelligence.

    • Calculating Years Until Extinction:

      • yearsUntilExtinction is calculated by subtracting currentYear from extinctionYear.

      • If yearsUntilExtinction is less than 0, it is set to 0.

    • Returning the Result:

      • The function returns the number of years until extinction.
  • Usage Example:

    • Retrieve the currentYear.

    • Set the values in the factors object. Each factor should be a value between 0 and 1.

    • Call the predictHumanExtinction function to calculate the years until extinction.

    • Output the result to the console.

  • Example Output:

    Estimated years until human extinction: 6900
  • Note:

    • This code provides a highly speculative estimation for illustrative purposes and should not be considered a scientific prediction.
