    A good antidote to this book is George Gilder’s new Life After Google. I liked Sapiens but thought that Homo Deus was much weaker.

    We need to avoid sleepwalking into some sort of distopia. It's very tempting to just let technology take over. Most of it is not intentionally evil as the creators just want to make money, but we risk losing touch with things that should matter more. I have my own technology addiction issues :)

      Someone told me to pick this book up like a year ago, and I've just been putting it off. I guess I need to get to it!

      Definitely an interesting read even if you don't agree with it all
