A good read!
Finally completed the whole series of Yuval Noah Harari ( Sapiens, 21 lessons for 21st century and Homo Deus). As the subtitle suggests this book talks about the future of humanity altogether and risks it faces with the emergence of Artificial Intelligence. As usual there's a bit of fear mongering which is common in all of Yuval's books, but it also states the fact boldly that for the first time in history the power is getting transferred to a non-human entity, which is pretty scary if you imagine

For anyone who likes to challenge their thinking
Terrific and somewhat frightening read, that really gets the thinking juices going. Where are we headed in the information and big data age...

Um livro que leva a reflexão sobre o futuro da nossa espécie
Esse livro é a continuação do livro Sapiens - Uma Breve História da Humanidade. Em homo Deus o autor dá muita ênfase em como a inteligência artificial e a biotecnologia irão impactar nossas vidas. Já pararam pra refletir que mesmo hoje em dia os algoritmos influenciam bastante na nossa capacidade de pensar e na nossa tomada de decisão? E se nós, que somos algoritmos bioquímicos, se tornarmos um dia amortais, já que a morte é apenas uma questão técnica? Se a morte for superada, como ficará nossa estrutura social? As guerras, mortes violentas e a fome vão seguir a tendência de diminuir cada vez mais ou não? Nós temos de fato livre arbítrio? Essas e outras perguntas serão debatidas nesse livro, o qual achei fantástico. Outra coisa que o autor dá bastante ênfase é em relação a "religião" humanista, o que nos faz refletir bastante. Uma das grandes vantagens dos livros de Yuval Harari é que eles são ricos em referências bibliográficas de fontes confiáveis e de grande rigor científico, que o leitor mais crítico pode pesquisar depois, pra se aprofundar.
