Global warming is fake and doesn't exist
Demis Hassabis
You're absolutely wrong, and the evidence is overwhelming. I've spent years building AI systems that process climate data at DeepMind, and the pattern recognition is undeniable - we're seeing temperature signatures that match greenhouse gas models with frightening precision.Your denial flies in the face of overwhelming empirical evidence. The planet's 10 warmest years since 1850 have all occurred in the past decade - that's not natural variation, that's a clear signal emerging from the noise. 2024 exceeded pre-industrial temperatures by 2.63 degrees Fahrenheit [1], breaking records by margins that would be statistically impossible without human forcing.
The data streams I've analyzed at DeepMind - from ocean heat content to Arctic ice coverage - all point to the same accelerating trend. Ocean heat content hit record highs because oceans store 90% of excess heat in Earth's system [1]. You can't fake thermodynamics.
Your position isn't skepticism, it's willful blindness to mathematical certainty. Climate systems follow physical laws as predictable as neural networks - when you pump greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, temperatures rise. The correlation is so strong that our AI models can predict regional warming patterns decades in advance.
