Der Global Risks Index

The Global Risks Index · XT-20 · Exponential technology series

Konvergierende Technologien

Risiken, die entstehen, wo sich Frontier-Technologien verbinden (KI mit Biotechnologie, Autonomie mit Cyber, Rechenleistung mit Energie), und die der Governance einzelner Technologien entgleiten.

Scope and questions

The subject of this index is proposed by NXS-GRX (canonical data, provenance and risk); the Nexus Reports edition with the same code sets its own subject at commissioning, and any difference is recorded as a crosswalk.

  1. Which technology combinations create new hazard classes?
  2. Where does convergence outrun governance?
  3. What early signals should be watched?
02Construction

Domain indices to the series index

The series index is the expert-weighted geometric mean of its domain indices, with the intervals and class rule of the methodology.

  1. Gesundheitssicherheitsrisiko

    Domain index · IDX · HLT
    INFORM-style aggregation, on 0 to 10, of epidemic and AMR hazard, disease burden and undernutrition against health-system and IHR capacity, each component oriented by its own polarity.
  2. Governance-Schwäche

    Domain index · IDX · GOV
    Weighted aggregation, on 0 to 10, of governance quality, rule of law, policy and institutional quality and statistical capacity, each oriented by its own polarity so that higher values mean weaker governance.
  3. Cyberrisiko

    Domain index · IDX · CYB
    Index of cyber incident pressure, digital dependence and the lack of cyber capability on a 0–10 scale, higher meaning riskier.
  4. Risiko technologischer Konzentration

    Domain index · IDX · TEC
    Index of technology dependence, critical-mineral dependence and, inverted, innovation capacity and biosecurity oversight, on a 0–10 scale, higher meaning riskier.
  5. Converging technologies index

    Series index · SERIES · XT-20
    Risiken, die entstehen, wo sich Frontier-Technologien verbinden (KI mit Biotechnologie, Autonomie mit Cyber, Rechenleistung mit Energie), und die der Governance einzelner Technologien entgleiten.
