In chapter 8 of his book, Harari describes how advances in science are undermining the ‘facts’ that Humanism depends on. When these advances result in changes to everyday technology, routine activities and economic structures, it is hard to see how Humanism will last. We will talk about some of these technological advances, such as robo-rats. In addition, given that Humanism may be in decline, we will look back to some of the previous transition points in our path of development and see if there are any lessons for today.
