Distractions can be interesting, as ancient Hebrew is, but now a return to the original track (can hardly believe the chutzpah of Ms. Goldwasser). Yuval Noah Harari is one with the WEF vision and after reading his many famous quotes he could qualify as a prototype of the antichrist or false prophet. His religion is technology and as a transhumanist expects that humanity will be replaced by human version 2 within 100 years. In 10 or 20 years he thinks that instead of going out to see a movie and enjoying that experience, movies will be downloaded into our minds if you have the right implants. He seems to think that people will let the algorithms of Google, Amazon and Facebook run their lives. You will be able to inquire about a possible marriage partner and the algorithms will have a better answer than your own heart because it knows both partners likes and dislikes. Netflix and other streaming services are already suggesting what movie to watch next, and they are just now gearing up with AI to take this further.
I think I am more disappointed in BAR. Even with conclusive evidence that Ms. Goldwasser's proposal was at least 60 years old - they ignored it. I suppose it is a sign of our times. I subsequently terminated my subscription to BAR - not really just because of that. There were other signs of carelessness plus the expense of the subscription.
Harari says that God's creation of man is flawed, but we can improve on that. Isn't that exactly what the serpent said to Eve in the Garden? Then you add all the other claims and ideas of the (man) and the conclusion of him being a false prophet is not far fetched. Is Harari the false prophet? Who can say? However he is uniquely placed in the heart of a globalist movement to achieve those ends.
When I review Harari's ideas I am doubly glad that I don't have a smart phone. It is getting harder and harder to do any sort of business without one, I admit. The pressure in that direction is becoming enormous; if I live too many more years they may have to terminate me! 😂 😇
