Where mankind is heading
Thank you ,You,
.. for telling me about this book , and yes I agree it is absolutely in my lane and in my
-artistically Lolo telling way-
I try to get the same message across for a while now.
Not that I am trying to change the world or that I want to pretend to know it ‘better’ but I do think we have to ‘look up ‘ more and enjoy what is there , here and in front of us .
About the book :
Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow by Yuval Noah Harari –
This new book examines where we might be headed . Predicting the future isn’t as easy as deconstructing the past, and Harari openly admits the challenge—but even if he’s completely wrong in his predictions, and most of us doubt he is, Homo Deus is the kind of provocative, food-for-thought read that drew so many of us to his work in the first place.
What is the biggest threat to mankind in the 21st century: financial meltdown, nuclear war or ecological disaster? The answer, according to Yuval Noah Harari, is none of the above. Instead our greatest existential challenge will come from the “techno-religion” known as Dataism.
(Definition of: dataism. dataism. The future evolution of technology wherein data become more valuable than humans. Dataism goes beyond techno-humanism, which envisions technology making people smarter.)
He insists we cannot predict the future and that his scenarios are possibilities rather than predictions. He also suggests that in the short to medium term we are right to concentrate on issues such as the refugee crisis and global warming. But if we take a “grand view of life” — say, over 50 or 100 years — we ignore the threat of Dataism at our peril.
The question is : “What’s more valuable ?
Intelligence or consciousness?
And how is data actually destroying human freedom or our ability to use our gut instinct .
So Call me, let me hear the tone of your voice, scream shout or tell me your deepest secret or let the full moon talk louder , act on instinct , use your hindsight , try to think if there would be no tomorrow, how would you live today.
Act ,
move ;
dare to Live and,.
oh please yes and start now,.
Goodnight !
