Nexus

In Nexus, Yuval Noah Harari delves into the profound evolution of human information networks, spanning from the Stone Age to the AI-driven present. Known for his skill in weaving historical insight with modern implications, Harari explores how humans shifted from simply receiving objective information for survival to creating subjective and intersubjective realities. This shift empowered humans to form vast societies built on shared myths, beliefs, and now, digital interconnections.

Harari further examines how these networks have evolved into digital platforms that increasingly shape our worldviews. With a focus on the ethical complexities of AI and algorithm-driven information curation, Nexus questions who truly controls this information flow and whether humanity’s grip on these powerful technologies is loosening. This timely exploration raises critical discussions about control, ethics, and autonomy in a digital world increasingly influenced by AI​
