Nexus by Yuval Noah Harari | The Key Ideas Summary

Описание: We have a dangerous myth about information: we assume that more data equals more truth. That is a lie. Look around. We have more information than ever, yet we are drowning in confusion and chaos.
This is a high-signal summary of Yuval Noah Harari's new book, "Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI."
Harari argues that information isn't the raw material of truth; it's the raw material of social order. In this summary, we explore how human networks have always relied on shared fictions, and why the rise of AI—the first "inorganic agents" that can create ideas and hack human language—poses a fundamentally new threat to our civilization.
