Yuval is brilliant, part of the reason he is so is because he takes his time to think and answer questions. The interviewer needs to understand this -- he kept pushing for an answer and did not take the time to listen nor let Y speak fully. Nevertheless, I liked the interview.

The worst interviewer I’ve come across in recent times. It was evident that he was unprepared-he hadn’t read his book or reviewed his recent interviews, which could have helped him frame better questions.

Amazing Yuval

[@Trophonius]

He is a conservative and/or a reactionist to (real) progress and the real New that is to come by Greece and the Greek spirit as always or most times fundementally (even if it is most probably more to USA or countries like France to incarnate the real change in the socio- political level and globally. We can't now, because we are not a big economical or geopolitical power now on the big scale of things, on the planetic scale and many such reasons, and even if we make the change, the big conservative powers of west or others either wan't let us do it as they have done that in the recent past, it would have most probably terrible consequences to us, either it would if we manage to do it, will not have the same impact on the rest of the world. Only to give the Greek spirit we can (or re - give it to be more precisely). A breath I mean, the inspiration. The idea (that is what really makes the change fundementally) - that is already there in many ways, as the spirit of the Greek gods and their sons acts in the invisible level. Then the Americans or any such, must act according to what "we" point to them, as the General is one, but gives orders to many, as his army and soldiers)

Democracy has to be tied to societies with fiat currency

[@evazfanaian3030]

You raise an insightful and thought-provoking point about the importance of considering contemporary perspectives and new paradigms when discussing the future of religion. Traditional religious frameworks, rooted in millennia-old dogma, often fail to address the dynamic and rapidly evolving needs of humanity today. To project the future of religion based solely on these older systems might indeed be analogous to predicting technological advancements while ignoring transformative inventions like the transistor. The Bahá’í Faith, offers a forward-looking vision for humanity. Bahá’u’lláh’s teachings emphasize principles such as the unity of humankind, the harmony of science and religion, gender equality, the elimination of prejudice, and the establishment of global peace-concepts that resonate strongly with contemporary challenges and aspirations. In thinking about the future of religion, the following points from the Bahá’í Faith could be particularly relevant: 1. Unity and Universality: Bahá’u’lláh’s writings call for the unification of humanity as one global family, transcending national, racial, and religious boundaries. This aligns with the increasing interdependence of our world. 2. Adaptability: Unlike many traditional religions, the Bahá’í Faith is designed to evolve in response to changing times, addressing modern issues like globalization, technological advances, and ecological sustainability. 3. Science and Religion: Bahá’u’lláh emphasizes that religion and science are complementary forces, and humanity thrives when they are in harmony. This bridges the gap often perceived between faith and rational thought. 4. Justice and Equality: The emphasis on justice, equality of men and women, and the eradication of economic disparity reflects a forward-thinking approach to societal organization. The future of religion, as shaped by teachings like those of the Bahá’í Faith, might focus less on rigid dogma and more on universal principles that foster collaboration, inclusivity, and progress. This approach has the potential to inspire not only spiritual growth but also tangible solutions to global issues.

[@ZahidHussainKhalid-fy6fh]

One of the most enlightening interviews I have so far watched so attentively, enjoyably and open mindedly. World needs outstanding evolutionary innovators like Yuan Harriri. He does not appear to live in a world of self admiration and worship of personal achievents as some of successful people like him do. The bottom-line is to keep the dark side of doing something in mind before practically doing it to sum up his views on the subject of his discussion. The lack of the comprehension of that neccesity unfortunately is the real cause of the un-predictability of what is expected to result in as AI's ultimate outcome: will it be a step ahead in making life easy or turning into premature Artificial Death which Yuan and his like minded innovators are affraid of.

I am very impressed with Youval Noah Harari, much as I am with San Harris. As I get older I find myself feeling frustrated with modern technology, it enables companies to cheat (steal) and deceive and they make it impossible to communicate with them. They can email or msg me, but I cannot reply to them. Communication requires me waiting on the phone listening to the same piece of music, over and over never knowing when it will end. That same company sent me a few hours later a msg saying "we are so sorry you have a problem, a service person will contact you shortly" ....... its been over a week now so 'shortly' has no meaning and neither does sorry. This irritation, everyone must be feeling it and it does nothing for harmony. I get angry that makes you angry etc etc. We have so much we must do and our time is being consumed as though we don't matter to the big companies. Is this how wars start ?

[@Life.is.a.library]
