Nexus : Una breve historia de las redes de información desde la Edad de Piedra hasta la IA

In *Nexus*, Harari views humanity through the broad lens of history to analyze how information networks have shaped and reshaped our world. Over the past 100,000 years, *Sapiens* have amassed enormous power. Yet, despite all our discoveries, inventions, and conquests, we now face an existential crisis: the world is on the brink of ecological collapse, misinformation is rampant, and we are hurtling toward the age of AI. After coming so far, why are we a self-destructive species? Drawing on a fascinating array of historical examples—from the Stone Age, the Bible, and early modern witch hunts, through Stalinism and Nazism, to the modern resurgence of populism—Harari offers an illuminating framework for exploring the complex relationships between information and truth, bureaucracy and mythology, and wisdom and power. He examines how different societies and political systems have used information to achieve their goals and impose order—for better or worse. He also addresses the urgent choices we face today, as non-human intelligence threatens our very existence. Information is not the raw material of truth, nor is it merely a weapon. *Nexus* explores the hopeful middle ground between these extremes.
