What happens to democracy when Google and Facebook know our political views better than we do? What about the welfare society when the development of technology pushes some people out of the labor market and makes them redundant? How can we protect humanity and our planet from the destructive power of our own species?
Yuval Noah Harari, who became famous for his book Sapiens, reflects on the next steps of humanity in his new book Homo Deus. Sapiens looked at how our species conquered the world with its unique ability to believe in common myths about gods, money, equality and freedom. In the book Homo Deus, the gaze turns towards the future: what happens when old myths are combined with new, god-like technologies such as artificial intelligence and genetic engineering?
Homo Deus offers a glimpse into the dreams and nightmares shaping the 21st century. As is typical for Harari, the work ties together natural sciences, history, philosophy and all other disciplines in between. Here is the next level of evolution: Homo Deus.
