What comes after Homo sapiens? Harari speculates about a future where humanity evolves through genetic engineering, AI, and biotech. This episode reflects on the ethical and existential challenges of becoming God-like beings with power over life itself.

A podcast series based on Yuval Noah Harari’s books offers an exciting opportunity to dive into the profound themes he explores. This six-episode outline will focus on Harari’s first three major works: Sapiens, Homo Deus, and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century. Each episode will cover core concepts, insightful analysis, and how these ideas relate to our world today.

What comes after Homo sapiens? In this final episode, we explore the possibilities of human evolution through genetic engineering, AI, and bio-enhancement. Harari raises provocative questions: Should we become gods, and what does it mean to control life itself? Join us for a deep dive into the ethical and existential dilemmas that will define the next stage of human history.

Note: This project explores the new creative potential unlocked by generative AI, showcasing how a single person, in just two hours, can curate (not create, but curate) a polished podcast series. I recognize the critiques around AI-generated content and the potential for digital clutter, but invite you to take a listen on your next walk or drive and see what you think.
