ההיסטוריה של המחר

Yuval Noah Harari examines the shift in human priorities from biological survival to the pursuit of immortality, happiness, and divinity. He argues that as humanity overcomes famine, plague, and war, new technologies will transform Homo sapiens into Homo Deus. Central to this transition is the rise of dataism, a framework where organisms are viewed as biochemical algorithms and artificial intelligence outpaces human consciousness. Harari details how biotechnology and silicon-based life might eventually replace the liberal individual with optimized, non-conscious systems that manage global society.

This book serves readers interested in the intersection of evolutionary biology, data science, and political philosophy. It targets those who want to understand how the consolidation of big data and genetic engineering threatens current democratic structures and human autonomy. Readers gain a technical perspective on why the humanist value of free will might become obsolete in a world driven by predictive algorithms. The text provides a cynical but logical map of a future where social classes are divided by biological enhancements rather than just economic wealth.
