How about and environmental and economic collapse caused by ai, while fighting WW3, leaving us helpless to combat the next pandemic.

Because the project was started thousands of years ago, and then just kept going on autopilot. If that species still exists their priorities would have changed, and they would already have thousands of years worth of data. They let it run because they couldn’t be bothered to turn it off.

In Mick Wests own words: "Mysteries remain. What the pilots who reported engaging a giant flying Tic-Tac saw is still unidentified, as are the objects in several other incidents. The causes of ghostly or rapidly moving radar returns are likewise, in many cases, unknown — although since the system is classified, if it’s a system glitch or inadequacy, then the Pentagon isn’t going to tell us.

We’ll also continue to have no good answer for many photos and videos, simply because the object shown is too far away for whatever camera is being used. But “unidentified” means just that. It does not mean advanced technology."

Their deaths aren’t that big a surprise. Look at human history and pre history. It’s always the same story, poor sanitation, environmental degradation, corruption and climate.

Look how people responded to covid.

I strongly recommend two books by Jared Diamond, Guns Germs and steel, and Collapse.
