Homo Deus 從智人到神人

推推推!

At the dawn of the third millennium of history, is intelligence decoupling from consciousness? Which is more valuable?

One more book into my 2017’s top 10 list.

Very well written and well thought out, I could hardly put it down. The part where he described the relationship between science and religion I felt was particularly interesting.

“Science and religion are like a husband and wife who after 500 years of marriage counselling still don’t know each other. He still dreams about Cinderella and she keeps pining for Prince Charming, while they argue about who’s turn it is to take out the rubbish.”

讀起來會很震撼的書,但非常有趣。查了中文版的名稱,以為又是個未來主義者把人當成神。看完了才發現剛好相反,會讓你很深地思考身為人類到底我們有哪些選擇? (跟 “Who owns the future” 類似的論點,很清楚地分析為什麼大量的工作會消失)

這本書敘述起來雖然觸及許多面向確非常流暢。我一邊讀一邊發出疑問或是跟作者爭辯,內心戲不斷,但接著讀下去發現他似乎回答了我上個問題,卻又拋出一個新的問題。是不是跟聰明的猶太人爭辯就會經歷類似的感覺呢?
