Homo Deus. A Brief History of the Future

In his first book, which became a worldwide sensation "Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind", Yuval Harari described how Homo sapiens came to dominate our planet. "Homo Deus" is a kind of continuation of the theme - it is an attempt to look into the future. What will happen when Google and Facebook are better than we are, knowing our tastes, personal preferences, and political inclinations? What will billions of people do, displaced by computers from the labor market and forming a new, useless class? How will religions perceive genetic engineering? What will be the consequences of transferring power and competencies from living people to network algorithms? What should humans do to protect the planet from their own destructive force?..
What is most important now, believes Harari, is to realize that we are at a crossroads and to understand where the paths stretching before us lead. We cannot stop the course of history, but we can choose the direction of movement.
