21 Lessons For The 21st Century: A Wake-Up Call To Focus AI On Improving Talent Management

"In order to keep up with the world of 2050, you will need not merely to invent new ideas and products but above all to reinvent yourself over and over again" writes Dr. Yuval Noah Harari, professor of world history at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in his latest book, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century. The book presents a strategic framework of 21 of society's most complex areas, from community, education, equality, work to education and meaning. The unifying chord that resonates across all chapters is the anticipated impact AI will have in changing every aspect of society. Dr. Harari doesn't resort to quick conclusions of how AI will positively or negatively impact an area of society; he leaves that judgment to the reader. He shows the good AI can do while explaining how historical context gives one reason to worry about its potential dystopian aspects.
