The internet's latest obsession: The end of the world
TL;DR
The world seems convinced the end is near — and social media is amplifying that belief, convincing people to stock up on food, water, generators and other items. Why it matters: Online chatter is fueling viral predictions of societal collapse amid growing unease about the future. But you're probably not going to die tomorrow.
Nauti's Take
Small teams should run a concrete resilience test: which AI dependencies would actually stop operations during an outage, and which can be covered by a second provider, local tools, or manual workarounds? Check data access, backups, API fallbacks, and manual procedures today.
That produces useful evidence about uncertainty without turning social-media chatter into a crisis forecast.
