He uses historical examples like canonization of texts and propaganda during totalitarian regimes to illustrate how information has been used to control populations. The book serves as a warning about the potential dangers of AI, which could exacerbate societal delusions and pose unprecedented challenges for future generations. Harari urges readers to reflect on their role in shaping a more informed and equitable future.

“A captivating book that combines history, philosophy, and contemporary issues, highlighting Harari’s ability to connect past events with present challenges in a technology-dominated age.”
