Summary

A philosophical and historical analysis of the future in which, after overcoming famine, epidemics, and war, humanity will pursue immortality, happiness, and divinity (Homo Deus). A new world order in which algorithms and data have replaced human will.

Cevvela Comment

In envisioning the future, Harari shows how humanity’s naive and humanistic side can dissolve in the face of data algorithms. It is not code that governs us, but our will—which directs that code—that must do so. This book serves as a warning against sacrificing the essence of humanity to technology. It questions how free will might become an illusion in a world where algorithms know us better than we know ourselves.
