The Economist.
Hi, I'm Zanny Minton Beddoes, editor-in-chief of The Economist,
and host of The Insider.
It's a weekly video show for subscribers that you can watch
on The Economist's app or online.
Today, we're bringing The Insider to our podcast listeners.
I want to give you the chance to hear some of the interviews I've been doing
with the people shaping our world.
This one is with the historian and philosopher Yuval Noah Harari.
He's the best-selling author of several books, including Sapiens, Homo Deus,
and most recently, Nexus,
a brief history of information networks from the Stone Age to AI.
He's one of the most thoughtful people today on how AI could change
not just the future of work,
but the future of our civilization.
He argues that whether AI helps us or destroys us
is down to the choices we make right now.
I really enjoyed this conversation.
I think it's an important listen.
So here it is for The Insider in full.
