In Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow, acclaimed historian Yuval Noah Harari explores the potential future of humanity as we move beyond the challenges of scarcity, war, and disease. Following the monumental success of his previous work, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind, Harari delves into the possibilities that lie ahead for our species, examining how advances in technology, artificial intelligence, and biotechnology could shape the next chapters of human existence.
Harari provocatively argues that as we seek to enhance our capabilities and improve our quality of life, we may inadvertently create new challenges, including ethical dilemmas and existential threats. The book examines concepts like dataism, the rise of algorithms, and the quest for immortality, prompting readers to reflect on what it means to be human in an age of unprecedented change.
