Harari’s thinking here is at times, determinist, but the discussion of transhumanist ideas is interesting: “I think that Homo sapiens as we know them will probably disappear within a century or so, not destroyed by killer robots or things like that, but changed and upgraded with biotechnology and artificial intelligence into something else, into something different. The timescale for that kind of change is maybe a century.”
