    I watch this and all I can think is Friedman needs to meditate for two hours a day. He seems so anxious and non self aware. Harari definitely has a better grasp of the issues we will deal with in the future.

    I find it fascinating how many comments are rooting for Yuval, as if he was their home team, and this was a competition... I think you're missing the point if you think this was a debate or that one person is better than the other. Two different people with two different skill sets and knowledge bases, discussing complex issues and each offering a different perspective than the other. Between those two there is a lot of good information and I am sure both people find the other to be intelligent and helpful in spreading knowledge. Moving beyond the mindset of rooting for the home team, or needing to win over another is critical in moving forward as a species, and I think both speakers would agree.

I love him on ecology, China, Middle East, economy, coal, America, Trump, you name it. As for Harari, he keeps claiming I am ruled by the algorithms. How come I found this conference that I wanted to find. Should not some algorithm work on my head to make sure I cast the right vote in the next election? Last but not least: Harari is a pessimist. I love those rosy pictures from Friedman. He is on the dot!

Still, it's stunning to watch someone describing the way to some exploitation-driven dystopia while being completely unaware of it (hint: judging by facial expressions, one participant in the conversation noticed this). It's one of those cases where one seriously wonders if Friedman is just a little slow in general or if this is one of the exceptions where using the term 'brain-washed' is actually justified.

    Yuval Noah Harari and Thomas L. Friedman great discussion. I was astonished by so many negative comments about Thomas L. Friedman. They are different characters with different personalities. Yuval it's more of a humble guy. Friedman maybe not so much, but i don't understand lots of hate comments on him. First time Friedman got my attention was a speech at Yale university. That was an eye opening speech. But anyways, what strikes me the most is, on a discussion about "The Future of Humanity" they haven't talked about many topics that i believe are so important, such as: 1) Violent games industry 2) The amount of time most of the people spend watching trash/meaningless content such as cats videos, or on social media...Yuval concerns about the future of education of the kids...that thing about artificial inteligence knowing you better than yourself... The term that comes to my mind it's "Natural selection" - If you choose to spend most of the time, consuming meaningless content, the algorythm will learn that and keep feeding you with more nonsense content. Also the opposite is truth. I believe in the future, we won't need to go after a job. the companies will go after us, since they will know us better than we do, based on how we use technology and the use we make out of it.

    Harari speaks with an economy of expression that has in part something to do with English being a second language; but that deliberating impulse, as fluid a speaker as he is, also showcases the considered weighting of his mind putting forward his premise. Friedman speaks as quickly as he thinks and it is a tour de force with colloquialisms, considered premises but as a hustled package delivered in a self confident rush. Harari wants to communicate with an intent for reciprocity. Friedman performs brightly, confident of his charm. I can't help but be suspicious of the dusinclination to speak simply or at least sparingly. In hunting terms, Friedman opens the choke and aims the shotgun at the tree, confident he'll hit something, somewhere. Harari selects his target with intent. One shot, one intent. There's something elegant occurring when someone brilliant can speak plainly, even when addressing complexity. The Friedman examples come often in multiple, ad infinitum volleys. As if he needs to, in his re iterations, speak over people's depth. I listen differently with each person. But they are not a good match, speaking together.

    The discussion is truly worthwhile watching. Both of them are Masters in their own spheres. Harari is as usual at his clinical best. I would have agreed more to Mr Friedman if could able to give examples beyond America. Many of his arguments does not fit beyond America. I understand that he was talking on the upside (on accelerated change in technology, etc), but are less implementable or pragmatic in third world countries. I think Mr Harari is bang on most of the issues discussed. I see this way. If technology has solved most of the problems of humans and presume that it made sapien's life more comfortable, then why most of the Humans are not Happy ??

He's better read, less cliche in his thinking, and a bit younger. I find it encouraging that the next generation is smarter and better informed than my own.

    Yolanda RP Yeah because somehow putting 'the world' first is better than putting yourself or your country first, which is funny because it's not possible to do. It's like putting the 'community' before the individual, which is retarded because there's no way you can define the community as an objectivr entity without pointing to individuals. People who 'put the world' first are just twats who like to clump and devalue individuals together so they can cherry pick who they benefit and who they punish under the guise of focuing on an imaginary concept like humanity. An american should have no responsiblity to someone in england and vice versa, and only the minimum amount of responsibility to those in the same country sd them as they're operating under the same system and so the same rules. Leftists are stupid anyway so if you can't even get your head round that then maybe you should think about who's the one with the shortest vision here.

    Harari is simplistic. He makes many references to a large variety of subjects but fails to tie these together through a dearth of creative imagination. He fails to see the bigger picture, though he tries. He is an intellectual for the unlearned, his erudition is shallow. The real action in the world which is creating the future is happening in an area he dismisses and fails to understand. Uninteresting thinker.

    Yuval Harari, I am a huge fan of yours, but as an Educator I totally disagree that we 'have no idea what to teach the youth' to prepare them for the future. If computers can automize all the jobs that we don't actually LIKE doing, as it has done much of until now, such as cleaning a hotel or a landfill, or plumbing the pipes for us without us having to tear down walls just to rebuild them, etc., we no longer have to lose precious days of our life to menial tasks. We are thus freed to be the MOST human we have ever been! I personally have tens of classes of curricula planned (I'm only 29 and so haven't taught them yet, but I have worked very hard on mapping them out... also because I myself am still a student myself, a Master's Degree Student) that blend visual art creation, art history, movement, dance, physics, philosophy, and mysticism. Other youth are learning to create and manipulate the technology to be even more beautiful and fun and interesting. As a professor and one of my true teachers, though I've only met you through a screen on a video feed and read the beginning of Sapiens, I would think you would be the most optimistic about how much MORE magnificent Education will become in the 21st century. Yes, AI, can evolve without humans, but we do/did create it. In the same way that we evolve to question and challenge God and thus change Her and the world around us, She never loses the position as Creator. Computers have no wisdom without programmers. Youth have an incredibly exciting century to look forward to; challenge and duress give the human spirit meaning and purpose on its journey. And I can tell you from the children that I have already worked with teaching digital photography, environmental sustainability, art, capoeira, gymnastics, and dance-- the human love of learning never dies. Neither does the human spirit in the heart of the brave. So, yes, some people can be coopted by super intelligent computers because they were foolish lemmings *hem, hem Thomas Friedman hem, hem* to begin with OR because they are youth who are vulnerable without proper guides. In the way that we have loved and always will love each other and the thrill of learning and growing, we will just embrace this new life form, AI, as a friend to continue our adventure with.

    Also, some of us enjoy being mavericks and have observed that history is full of people who pursued strange interests that could not be categorized at the time, sometimes because they didn't pursue what was available, were stopped from pursuing what they loved to do at one time, had a spiritual or cosmic experience, and endless etceteras. The predicted reliance on AI to tell us who we are and to direct society in deep ways will likely just make us all more homogeneous, less interesting, and less creative.

What’s it mean of differences is cultural, religious beliefs language and your surroundings with environmental. The most problems in my mind from the kiddies were why do they kill each other’s? Why’d have Warship? What’s wrong with skinny?? As we are Humans. I am Buddhist. I would like to know what’s the differences in detail of each religious beliefs. I picked up and learned the lessons of this the campus . I found no differences in the truth of each other’s beliefs since every religious taught us that To be a good generously with helping with compassion. No take trouble for each other’s . Why’d we referred as the Buddhist, the Christian and any. Since we don’t practice as God taught us. It’s man making way to Wars. How’s your doing in opposite? Everything is good going togetherness when you get wisdom of the cores in Respect Beliefs and practice.In my question I don’t think 🤔 the leadership political policies to point us with no morals but the Armed, could these differences ethnic get to the point of Overwhelming Powerful? We’re not the slavery in Power. For AI, I have just told you that it’s the tools, the ways of communication that brings us together nearly. How’s good feeling to share good things together. If’s it’s useful to all. But me, the Fool in computer science. There are many friends to support Peacefully for everyone. I would like to thank you 🙏🏼. It’s just my accidentally to touch them . But how’s enjoying togetherness. Next, Environment saving, when you look around you’re, there are in changing to your life, in everyday life made you addicted in rushing ways and produce more garbage especially Plastics. How’s much going on to get recycling? Just One straw took time 200 years to resolving. How much a day all over take it. Throwing. I read and we all saw and how’s pitying the sea lives had the plastic the died. How’s about the future food? To our next generations. Don’t hesitate to saving. Finally, the next generations, I couldn’t change anyone’s, advice you as genders. For me it’s your character not your inners. Don’t worry. Life’s not only roses petals soft , smooth and the bright shining to you no matter what’s ever going it’s yours to pick and fight on. I hope the good news for you. If I can it’s your ours Future I tried with your. I finished with one sentence I have read . Are You trying to be as human as you could be? ✨ Be together with UN in Multi ethnic society togetherness 😃. Let’s make it real. Thank goodness saving lives for us. 🙏🏼
