Mankind has ushered in the second cognitive revolution. Algorithms will overcome free will, and most people will become useless classes. -A brief history of the future
According to yuval Harari's guess, the future may be a horrible moment when God was born.
Why do you say horrible?
Everyone can't be a god. So, what about ordinary people who have not become gods?
As mentioned above, they will become useless classes. Since it's useless, what should I do with myself?
Aside from these questions, let me introduce yuval Harari to you.
Yuval harari, Israeli, born in 1976, is a young geek, a world-renowned cutting-edge historian, a doctor of history at Oxford University, a professor of history at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and the author of the international bestseller A Brief History of Humanity. The book sells well in more than 30 countries, ranking first in the list for 65,438+000 weeks, and is warmly recommended by celebrities such as Bill Gates and Zuckerberg. This book was praised by Daniel Kahneman, a Nobel laureate in economics, and was named the best book of the year by The Guardian and The Times.
A Brief History of the Future is yuval Harari's latest masterpiece, which examines the ultimate fate of mankind from a grand perspective. As soon as the book was published, it set off a wave around the world and attracted widespread attention.
History begins with man creating God and ends with man becoming God, from how man wins to his ultimate destiny.
A Brief History of the Future is an impressive and interesting masterpiece. Compared with yuval Harari's famous A Brief History of Mankind, this book is more readable and interesting.
Most importantly, it will subvert your way of thinking, your cognition and refresh your world view.
At the beginning of A Brief History of the Future, it is clearly pointed out with amazing and alert words: "Because genetic technology, artificial intelligence and robotics are constantly changing the relationship between people and between people and other species, all our species are facing great challenges."
Then present the truest side of history (Homo sapiens conquers the world and gives it meaning) to readers with clear writing and unique perspective, and then let us see the ultimate fate of mankind in an easy-to-understand way:
"Artificial intelligence and biogenetic technology are reshaping the world, and human beings are facing new problems. Life itself is a process of constantly processing data, and biology itself is an algorithm; Computers and big data will know ourselves better than ourselves. In the future, only a few people will complete the next biological evolution and upgrade to "God Man" with new characteristics, and the vast majority of others will completely become "worthless groups!" .
With a strong curiosity, I read A Brief History of the Future, and my heart is full of unspeakable feelings:
If you can't be happy, what's the point of eternal life?
If you can be happy, decades will be enough to smile!
However, the most terrible result is that an unpredictable and immortal madman like in the movie appears, and then the whole world will be enslaved.
What can you say at this time?
