Corbett Report - Bill Gates Full Documentary
https://odysee.com/@EduardoCorrochio:4/Corbett-Report---Bill-Gates-Full-Documentary:5
Yuval Noah Harari discusses the potential for a future where humanity may diverge into different types or "species" based on technological advancements and societal structures. In his book Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow, he posits that advancements in machine intelligence and biotechnology could lead to a scenario where a small elite class enhances themselves beyond the capabilities of the average human, creating a significant divide. Harari suggests that as "human soldiers and workers give way to algorithms," some elites might decide it is more pragmatic to focus on upgrading a select few "superhumans" rather than improving conditions for the masses, whom they may view as obsolete.
This concept implies a future where distinctions between different groups of humans could become stark, potentially leading to a form of biological or social stratification. Harari's analysis raises ethical questions about the implications of such advancements and the societal consequences of creating a divide between enhanced individuals and the rest of humanity.
While he does not explicitly label these groups as different human species in a biological sense, his arguments suggest that technological enhancement could lead to fundamentally different capabilities and experiences among humans, akin to separate evolutionary paths. Thus, while he does not state outright that we will become different species, he does explore the ramifications of significant divergence among humans based on access to technology and enhancement

In this new dystopian world that the elites are long planning, there will be 2 classes of people, them and us. This is so obvious that even a teenage would grasp.
Considering the current world state of affair, have you ever ask yourself 'cui bono' from all of this?
Have read several of Hararis books and he is certainly not advocating for this but rather warning of the potential.
However it is not anywhere in his work suggested that the elites want 90% of us dead.
What he is saying is that post industrial technology does imply and has already led to new elites who hold considerable concentrations of power and wealth...eg Gates.
Harari argues algorithms become potent concentrators or power- eg Google and Uber.
Agree totally we need to be wary of this and consider how to respond for example data security and privacy become important as do many other issues of equity, democracy, wealth distribution and liberty.
There is also hope- in the shape of Bitcoin- a unique and revolutionary decentralised blockchain algorithm that reverse engineers some of the dangers of corporate software and redistributes the power to the people via decentralisation!
What we need is level heads, accurate information and constructive debate- not hysterical scaremongering based on misinformation.
