Nexus

Harari’s next book Nexus drops in September. I’m tempted to pre-order it, but I know I won’t have time to dive in right away. Harari argues that Homo sapiens despite being wise humans, often do self-destructive things. He suggests that our creation of AI could even lead to our downfall, which is a bold idea. While we don’t know the outcome or the path AI is taking, Harari reminds us that, historically, our inventions have made us more powerful. But with AI making its own decisions, the future might be different this time.
