Alongside a special guest host, Yuval will delve into the heart of our society’s predicaments, tracing the evolution of information systems from the dawn of civilisation to the digital age. He will share stories of the ancient realms of the Stone Age, the tumultuous chapters of Stalinism and Nazism, and will grapple with the resurgence of populism today. As Yuval navigates this labyrinth of truth, he will take us on a journey through the shifting complexities of human information networks, particularly in the age of AI.

An Evening with Yuval Noah Harari

For the last 100,000 years, we Sapiens have accumulated enormous power. But despite all our discoveries, inventions and conquests, we now find ourselves in an existential crisis. The world is on the verge of ecological collapse. Misinformation abounds. And we are rushing headlong into the age of AI – a new information network that threatens to annihilate us. If we are so wise, why are we so self-destructive?

As one of the world’s most influential public intellectuals, Yuval will share the aggregation of his knowledge on humankind. With the opportunity to engage in a thought-provoking discussion, this night promises to be an extraordinary exploration on truth, information, and humanity.

Every ticket will include a hardback copy of Nexus by Yuval Noah Harari RRP £28.
