From 12–15 October 2026, Sunway University will host the Global Tipping Points Conference 2026, the first to be held in Asia.
Across four days, one argument builds: shared understanding, the human conditions for change, the finance and law that make it irreversible, and action in the region’s own cities. Bringing together scientists, policymakers, financiers, faith leaders, business leaders, civil society, artists and youth, the conference will explore how positive tipping points can accelerate transformative change for people and planets. Co-organised by the Sunway Centre for Planetary Health, University of Exeter, and Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK).

Founded by the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH), World Thrombosis Day shines a light on thrombosis — a serious but often misunderstood or unknown condition.

The International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction (IDDRR) was started in 1989, after a call by the United Nations General Assembly for a day to promote a global culture of risk-awareness and disaster reduction.
Held every 13 October, the day celebrates how people and communities around the world are reducing their exposure to disasters and raising awareness about the importance of reining in the risks that they face. To ensure homes remain safe for everyone, the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction has selected “Resilience Starts at Home” as the theme for the 2026 IDDRR. The 2026 IDDRR aims to raise global awareness of the centrality of the home in disaster risk reduction, advocate for stronger governance and investment in resilient housing, elevate the role of the private sector in reducing housing-related risk, and empower households, particularly those facing heightened vulnerability, to take risk-informed action to protect themselves and strengthen community resilience.

Experiments suggest that small AI models may be months away from being capable enough to self-replicate on commercial internet-of-things (IoT) devices, like smart ovens and off-brand Android TV boxes.
A replicator like this would be challenging to shut down, since there’s no centralized point to shut off—though it may be slow (with a doubling time of days). Unlike non-AI malware, it could also figure out unfamiliar devices on its own. In our evaluations, a 9B model got inference running on 8 of the 9 hardware types we tested. Models of 30B parameters and under can already complete many of the individual steps for replication today, though they make mistakes when composing them end to end. In our simplified evaluations, GLM-5.2 and stronger models are capable of end to end replication. If small models improve at their historical rate, they’ll match this capability level by the end of this year. Small weight-based replicators may be possible soon after.
This year’s laureates in the economic sciences, Robert E. Hall and Michael Woodford, have developed new macroeconomic models that have significantly improved our ability to implement effective stabilisation policy. On the basis of these models, well-timed fiscal and monetary policy measures can reduce the economy’s peaks and troughs. The economy is characterised by alternating downturns and upturns. Ever since the economist John Maynard Keynes launched his theories almost a century ago, stabilisation policy has been important for tackling these fluctuations. During recessions, the economy is boosted by reducing interest rates and increasing the budget deficit, while the opposite should be done to slow a booming economy. However, during the oil crises of the 1970s, it seemed that the Keynesian models that govern when and how measures should be implemented no longer worked. They did not reduce unemployment, but led to uncontrolled inflation instead. The West experienced a decade of low growth, high unemployment and high inflation. Many people believed that stabilisation policy had done more harm than good and that it should be retired.
