Nexus
A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI
Book • 2024
In 'Nexus', Yuval Noah Harari delves into the long-term history of information networks, examining how the flow of information has made and unmade our world.
The book takes readers from the Stone Age through significant historical events like the canonization of the Bible, early modern witch-hunts, Stalinism, Nazism, and the resurgence of populism today.
Harari discusses the complex relationship between information, truth, bureaucracy, mythology, wisdom, and power, and addresses the urgent choices humanity faces as non-human intelligence threatens our existence.
He argues that information networks are the primary driving force shaping human societies and that AI represents a new and critical phase in this history.
