This source is an excerpt from Yuval Noah Harari's book "Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI." The excerpt focuses on the third part of the book, "Computer Politics", and explores the political implications of the rise of artificial intelligence (AI). Harari examines how information flows differently in democracies and dictatorships, considering how AI changes the power dynamics of both systems. The text argues that AI has the potential to create a new "Silicon Curtain" that separates nations and shapes global power structures. Throughout the excerpt, Harari emphasizes the need to maintain a balance between truth and order in a world increasingly dominated by computer networks. He warns of the dangers of AI becoming too powerful and the potential for misuse by authoritarian regimes. Ultimately, the excerpt argues that human societies must develop robust ethical frameworks and institutions to regulate AI and prevent catastrophic consequences.
