Summary

Yuval Noah Harari is a renowned historian, bestselling author of “Sapiens” and “Homo Deus,” and the mind behind the new book, “Nexus.” This conversation explores AI’s impact on society through Yuval’s unique historical lens. We discuss AI as “alien intelligence,” information’s role in shaping political systems, embracing uncertainty, institutional trust, and finding clarity amid rapid change. His analysis of our collective human psyche in the AI era is profound and revelatory. Yuval is a treasure trove of wisdom. This one is enlightening and sobering. Enjoy!
