An interview with Yuval Noah Harari (The Economist)

 

Episode summary

Yuval Noah Harari is a big-ideas guy. He’s known for penning tomes that tackle broad sweeps of history. (They reach big audiences, too. Sapiens, Mr Harari’s most popular book, has sold 25m copies.) The historian-cum-philosopher has now turned his attention to AI. The technology, he says, is the “biggest psychological and social experiment in human history”.

He joins Zanny Minton Beddoes, The Economist’s editor-in-chief, in our London studio to discuss why he believes AIs will come to control civilisation—and what it might mean to be human in that world.

Imagen

Episode summary

Elon Musk may be the most powerful man in the world. He’s worth almost $1trn, runs Tesla and SpaceX, boasts an enormous social-media following and, to top it all off, he reckons he’s pretty good at predicting the future, too. 

For his first extended interview since SpaceX’s blockbuster IPO, Mr Musk sits down with Zanny Minton Beddoes, The Economist’s editor-in-chief, at his Texas Gigafactory to talk about what he thinks this future holds. They discuss the timeline for AI overtaking human intelligence, the rapid progress of China, the reasons for his interest in Europe and why he thinks he “got a little too involved” in politics.

María Jesús Pablos, AFS and Fulbright

María Jesús Pablos, Executive Director of Spanish Fulbright Commission, discusses the joys and challenges of researching and lecturing in the Mediterranean country. Mar 31, 2009

Nota personal: una tarde-noche de 1969 se presentó en el Instituto Padre Isla de León, en nuestra clase de inglés, para hablar del programa American Field Service, que enviaba cada año a los EE.UU. a finales de los 60 y comienzos de los 70 desde todo el mundo unos 40.000 jóvenes a cursar el Senior Year de la High School (último curso de secundaria, equivalente en España entonces a Preuniversitario y Prueba de Madurez  (existía la convalidación automática).  Me apunté, un día María Jesús visitó a mi familia en Sahagún, pasé las pruebas y en agosto del año siguiente, con 17 años, iniciaba un año de estudios en Elkhorn, a unas 80 millas de Chicago, en el estado de Wisconsin. Aquella experiencia cambió mi vida. Mi gran sorpresa fue encontrarme años después, tras haber disfrutado de una beca Fulbright en Nueva York a finales de los 70, en Madrid con María Jesús dirigiendo la Fulbright. No exagero si escribo que fue una de las personas que más influyeron en mi destino.
