Fiona Katauskas
In a year that saw rapid developments in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and natural disasters brought about by climate change, Fiona Katauskas has a humorous take on the existential threats the world currently faces. She imagines the four horsemen of the apocalypse from the New Testament’s Book of Revelation, Death, Famine, War and Conquest, being joined by three new faceless companions: Plague, Climate Change and AI.
