📚 | What We Got Out Of It
- How Harari’s Nexus explores the ambiguity of information and its impact on human societies.
- The evolution of power from myths to algorithms and how it continues to shape our world today.
- Harari’s warning about the future role of AI and algorithms in controlling information and human reality.
In this episode, we explore Yuval Noah Harari's thought-provoking book, Nexus. Known for his sharp insights, Harari reveals how societies have shaped and been shaped by information across history, from ancient myths to modern technology. Nexus challenges us to rethink the role of data and power in human evolution.
Harari examines the concept of “intersubjective realities,” where beliefs in things like money, laws, or gods have the power to shape societies because enough people believe in them. He draws a stark comparison between myths of the past and the narratives driven by today’s algorithms.
|| "It is different with computers. In terms of intelligence, computers far surpass not just atom bombs but also all previous information technology..."
The author goes on to discuss how power dynamics have shifted in the digital age, with data, algorithms, and AI at the center of it all. Harari’s historical examples, like the bureaucracy of ancient Egypt and the modern-day control of information, paint a vivid picture of how information has always been wielded to shape reality.
In his signature style, Harari doesn’t offer easy solutions but instead pushes us to think critically about how we engage with technology and the flow of information in the future. His call for vigilance in an era dominated by artificial intelligence is a powerful reminder of the need to remain informed and proactive.
