(USA) Online ISSN: 2249-4626 & Print ISSN: 0975-5896 Autonomous Technology in Scenario by Rare Geophysical Processes (Underwater Focus) By Laís Raysa Lopes Ferreira Abstract- From an ecological perspective, scientific investigation of the “Earth system” reveals its complexity, evidenced by the interaction of geophysical processes – which occur in the “global atmospheric system”; in the “world ocean” – both favoring the “world climate”; in "the interior of the globe"; and, between each of these parts and outer space. Environmental risks (geophysical) exist due to the configuration of extreme circumstances (CAPRA, 1982; MCWILLIAMS, 2006; SKINNER and MURCK, 2011). In the nuclear age, and taking into account the possibility of employing emerging autonomous technology as a weapon of this category, a geopolitical risk exists (KAHN, 2007; NICHOLS et al ., 2022). Crossing between risks (geophysical and geopolitical) can be imagined (WEICK, 1989; GAUB, 2020; MCLENNAN et al ., 2021). Analyzing the plausibility of the coincident occurrence of risks (crossed – geophysical and geopolitical) as a critical uncertainty for scenarios – and due to the vulnerability of autonomous systems to the ( sui generis ) flow of fluids by unlikely geophysical processes – the present study ratifies the technology "in the sea” (underwater, in focus) as a possible threat to the “Earth-system”; in the conception of scientific thought for the 21st century.
