Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI by Yuval Noah Harari

Entertaining and refreshingly even sided coverage of the history, present and anticipated future uses and abuses of information as a means to power, progress, or destruction Harari besides thoughtfully brilliant and credible in its predictions/extrapolations for the future of information is courageous enough to be honest about the past and present of information control, albeit diplomatic with the status quo, of course, since he has ambitions to influence it.

Harari doesn’t shy away from a comprehensive review about who has been controlling information and who wants to controls Information versus those in favor of open information flows. So when we first start reading “Nexus” we roll our eyes about he seemingly pointing only to the usual contemporary suspects on the right with the usual simplified rethoric about them, only to be regained to a balanced conversation when he admits that controlling information as a means to power is much older and comes from the left and marxism.

Hence, Instead of a fairy tale for children of good left guys and galls always accurate and trustful and bad ones always lying that simpler less sophisticated minds in mainstream try to persuade us of, with Harari we get an adult centrist view and reflection about the nuances and both positive as well as negative view information on all sides We leave the book much more educated and aware of all that surrounds us in terms of information networks and their potential for good and bad. The same is true for Harari’s view on Artificial Intelligence intertwined with information. Never childly, neither too optimistic nor too fearful he presents a realistic and credible view of how AI is going to occupy its space and mingle with us. Great reading.
