The book delves into the surprising resilience of Israel, a nation facing numerous external and internal challenges. It examines why Israelis have high life expectancies, low rates of 'deaths of despair,' and a young and growing population. The authors, Dan Senor and Saul Singer, attribute Israel's success to its societal values, including service, solidarity, and belonging. They discuss how the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), high-tech start-ups, and strong social networks contribute to the country's happiness and innovation. The book offers insights into how other communities and countries can learn from Israel's unique societal structure and resilience.
In this book, Henry A. Kissinger, Eric Schmidt, and Craig Mundie explore the epochal challenges and opportunities presented by the revolution in Artificial Intelligence. AI is seen as a force that can address enormous crises such as climate change, geopolitical conflicts, and income inequality, while also posing significant challenges to human judgment, divine relationships, and potentially spurring a new phase in human evolution. The authors chart a course between blind faith and unjustified fear, offering an accessible guide to how AI will shape civilization in the modern era.
