Required Readings:
21 Lessons for the 21st Century by Yuval Noah Harari
 
著名歷史學家Yuval Noah Harari 的最新著作《21 Lessons for the 21st Century》把兩道看來無關的歷史趨勢:人工智能崛起威脅全球就業,以及自由主義浴火重生書寫普世價值,巧妙起連結起來,在混帳紛亂的時局中理出頭緒,展示人類大歷史觀的智慧啟迪。
 
In this Book Club you will read the latest book 21 Lessons for the 21st Century by the global best-selling author Yuval Noah Harari. Is artificial intelligence replacing humans? Will the liberal story be abandoned, given the increasing pushback against it today? In bringing his focus to the here and now, Harari will help us to grapple with a world that is increasingly hard to comprehend.
