Harari Y.N. Homo Deus. Kratkaja istorija budushhego

Author	Harari Y.N.
Title	Homo Deus. Kratkaja istorija budushhego
Description	Sapiens, Yuval Noah Harari’s much-discussed and in many ways revolutionary book, explained how our species became dominant on Earth and how we became who we are. Homo Deus continues the logic of the first book by answering the question: if we are the crown of creation, what comes next? We once organised ourselves in order to satisfy basic needs. Now we strive for bliss and immortality. This is where Harari’s main provocation lies. Should we really strive for these things? Harari argues that absolute happiness, immortality and godlike power will not necessarily be a blessing for the human race. Through biotechnology and genetic engineering, elites will improve themselves and their lives and create a godlike species, Homo Deus; artificial intelligence will appear that “knows us better than we know ourselves”; and in the end, godlike elites and superintelligent robots may decide that the existence of the rest of humanity has no meaning. Harari shows how we may arrive at such a life and what it threatens us with. A Brief History of Tomorrow is being written right now, and we are active participants in this process.
