- Seventy thousand years ago, our human ancestors were insignificant animals, just minding their own business in a corner of Africa with all the other animals. But now, few would disagree that humans dominate planet Earth; we've spread to every continent, and our actions determine the fate of other animals (and possibly Earth itself). How did we get from there to here? Historian Yuval Noah Harari suggests a surprising reason for the rise of humanity.

"Take a human being, cut him open, look inside, and you will find no human rights there."
Well this went pretty dark pretty fast
Rob ʺEuphoricAgnosticʺ McDoritos
The truth is often "dark".
The irony that doing so itself would be a human rights violation.
There are no human rights. that's the point.
Rob ʺEuphoricAgnosticʺ McDoritos
self fulfilling prophecy^^
Cut open a random man and yes, human rights are not a part of that act in any way ! :)
How is a fact 'dark' ?
this talk is basically a summary of his book.
Sapiens is a mindblown book.
Yep. He used similar example of Osama Bin Laden believing in US dollars in his book too!
@Vitaliy Hrynyk in Vietnam, my textbooks aren't written in a way as interesting and humourous as his.
Vitaliy Hrynyk where are you from then? Just curious. It’s must be an interesting one
@Vitaliy Hrynyk which country u Live in ?
Got chills when he said , New Delhi 😮😮 as I am sitting and watching him over the Internet in new delhi
Kudos to the interviewer at the end .
His first question was revealing.
Sapiens: A brief History of Human Kind, the best book i have read....
I completely agree with you! This book is fantastic!
Answered a lot questions I had, indeed, especially about empires and capitalism.
Katwere James Holo Deus is even better
Mesfin I don't know about him but it may be true in my case. I think that this is the best book I am ever going to read. I found the book educational but also overly entertaining that it has raised some doubts in me. Can you suggest some other good books.
Mark Marquez very predictable low-level hater-for-life comment, I imagine it sucks to be you
I like and am glad that he says "human and other animals" instead of "human and animals"
Aristotle said the same, so why not? The real questions are how explain this thing called imagination? How explain the objective objects? Or are we to conclude that even these are inventions? Open a brain and one sees “meat”, just as we open a hard drive and see” stuff”. what he says is tautology.

💯💯💯💯
No, his book is nothing but nihilistic nonsense. His book ignores and downplays the very principles of what makes humanity so dominant. While I agree with him on the fiction of religious scripture, I do not agree with him that there is no higher purpose or that objective reality cannot be shaped by our own ideas.
I think there are plenty of great non-religious books out there we can teach to students that do not have this same type of toxic nihilism that so many post-modernists spew today.

@@husseincivil8771 Tell me a story
Rather than "many people he believes we need to dispose of", when I read his books he conveys that some people will just become irrelevant, and will fight for whatever little natural resources will be left, while an elite of genetic programmed super-beings will rule the game aided by AI, algorithms, and robotics

"If they took anyone of you, and placed you alone with a chimpanzee on an island, the chimpanzee would do better"
Bear Grylls: Hold my piss...
difficult to hold it when he has already drunk it
🤣😉🥰 love Bear Grylls! Good point 🤣😆
The chimp is Bear Grylls's first dinner. Yuval's fanboys on the other hand would be the chimp's dinner. That makes him 70% right.
Which demonstrates he has no idea about etology. In that situation, the chimpanzee would surely die, probably not too much after the initial situation. The human, instead, would probably survive more time and, depending on which human it was, he might even survive successfully.
LOL.
Great Lecture about comparison Study.
If you ask me: Nobody is useless, rich became rich because someone from his/her family belonged to useless class and worked hard for it. I think what we need to do is not to create division but a world which is more fairer, just and loving for one another. I don't need money, I need life. Every human born in this world should deserve to live till the end of his life. Everyone deserves a good life. Please.

Wow, I was expecting a generic talk about how humans just have higher intelligence, but I've never thought about humans and life this way. Fantastic talk.
lw you should read his book. It’s blown my mind
well higher intelligence gives us the capacity to imagine, communicate more complex ideas, etc... cooperation, i believe, is a mere consequence of those abilities. nevertheless, the bird's eyeview is indeed a more refreshing perspective.
Nataliia Kuchai Which one??

Higher intelligence means to some godlike abilities. Not God-like but gods like Jupiter who demand sacrifice.

Clear case of "glued to the floor".
Well, there is a thing called being "boring"! ;) guess you'd know what I mean :)
CryMyName100 good observation
He’s not human!
Halfway through ‘Sapiens’ I watched this video & now I am reading the rest of it un Yuval’s voice & accent. “Shimpanchij” .
Jokes aside, he is truly a brilliant writer and effective speaker.
Shimpan Ji is my good neighbor.
I’m doing the exact same thing!
Hehehe
Same here
He has an Israeli accent.
In English you sa:
Chim-pan-zee
In Hebrew we say:
Shim-pan-zah
So it's basically a mix of both:
Shim-pan-zee
with a bit of a duplication of the zed at the end for the plural sense (in contrast with a regular s used in English).
Notice also his stress on the first and second last syllable.
Absolutely stunned❤
I am awed with your views Sir... It's enlightening
This man is a pure genius. If you want to know why? Read 'Sapiens'..
Where is the genius in the "chimp would survive better than a human on a lonely island"? The chimp is dinner on the first day. I'll be the first to develop tools, weapons and traps. His conclusion could be true if you place them in a cage. Faulty logic, dismissed by the fact that humans took over this Terra 'island' with limited resources, and not the chimps.
Adi Yo 1. The chimp is conditioned to live in the wild better 2. A chimp is farrrrrr more muscle bound meaning it can get to higher areas and access more food and not to mention it could rip you apart.
Adi Yo You are so silly my friend. You get in your car and drive to McDonald’s to eat. You stand no chance on an island with a chimpanzee. They are literally build for the jungle and you’re built for your couch fat man
@Adi yo, he ment there is objectivity in animals to pursue living. If you both get left in an island, chimpaze will not try to leave the island, or he doesnot think about home, he is placed to this moment at the time he reaches to the island. And he will continue to live there. But if you are a human you think of your marriage and you wana go back, you will think of your job, you want live in the reality you created, thats what people do. If you are lucky you may find some woman and live there to procreate and live but still you will go on creating systems that are fictions. Thats what makes us human. If you live in the moment everything stops. It takes a huge thought to reach this, its called meditation.
Thats why governments tend to fail. The lesser there is a fiction created among its people the more likely it will fail, this fiction is politics. Its not a relity if you think about it. Its there to polarize people. You will find many many more.
This guy is already a well meditated, enlightened being.
He's not genius but smart. He smart historians and writer.
I went to a few lectures of his, brilliant guy.

I was told by a teacher that a good book takes your hand walks you through a path that you inevitably fall in love with, regardless of how much you know or agree with the content ; his books do so in such an organic way that is hard to stop reading, and even when you do is hard to stop thinking of it. I'm not a book lover but I absolutely admire his writing. Simple and creative.. A true pleasure to read.

One thing I could not comprehend. Why these many people are perplexed and surprised by the books of Harari these much while all of the points he spoke about we somewhat and somehow knew even from high school.
Because his storytelling is great mate
Cuz he’s the only one who summarised it and presented in a very entertaining manner
Best talk ever. I am addicted to it. Gold.
Every time I think I have had an original idea, which is kind of useful in order update my mental model of how the world works. People like Yuval come up with exactly the missing piece of my mental puzzle. I'm grateful for his efforts
Same thing happen to me
Once I think I get the original ideas of how the world works the more and more ideas come in my way to make it complete. I think it still isn't stop yet
Thats very beautifully put into words.
Study sociology and philosophy, and you will come up with the same answer as Yuval! He is great at explaining and applying concepts like natural facts, objective and subjective reality (social constructivism)!
Just pray and you will come up with the best answer. Try GOD mate! This guy says we come from apes is hilariously funny and a lie.🤣🥴
It's calledalgorithms ;)
One of the most interesting video that I've ever watched for sure
Harari's mention of slaughter houses in the context of "horrible" is a strong clue. I googled him, and yes, very happy to discover that he is a vegan.

I like he is at least honest. I came to the same conclusion that there are so many redundant people who can actually survive doing nothing. I just could not put this into the words to explain this to other people.

"The Devil has little trouble with those who do not believe in him they are already on him side"
Gates Whiteley quoted -
"Any reader of the OT will find that God did intervene often in the affairs of mankind. He rescued his people - The Jews - only to have them turn their backs on him at the earliest sign of trouble. Impatient, they could not even wait for Moses to come off the mountain.
Any reader of the NT will find that God intervened in the most effective, dramatic and visible way by sending Jesus to earth. God became man and lived with him. The world has never been the same.
God has proven again and again that he is patient, long suffering and desirous of man’s turning to him. He has shown how this turning can be done. Ask any Christian if you don’t know how to turn away from the evil God abhors.
Why evil? A clue is given above by the commentator who pointed out God is not a baby sitter nor is he Santa Claus, for that matter. Evil exists to show the delight God and his created man may find in the alternatives to evil. It would be impossible to love what is good unless one knew the difference between good and evil. It would be impossible to love evil unless one knew the difference between evil and good.
And it often comes down to choices made by man. It is never God’s will that man do evil. But he has given man the will to choose. Choices have consequences, as most of us know from life experiences.
Evil is a necessary tool. It can be used or rejected by man.
Evil is almost like a parasite, requiring good to feed upon. In this analogy, it may be said that evil could not exist without good. And therefore exists because of the good.
Finally, over millennia, it is possible to note that good has triumphed. Nothing lasts forever. Evil is eventually defeated, everywhere."
Interesting thesis, well argued, but also highly contestable! His view can be pushed back against on multiple fronts. Three that jump to my mind:
1. Why is it *one thing*- creativity- that makes humans distinct, rather than a family of things? What exactly is this “creativity” trait that he speaks of?
2. If creativity is just defined as believing fictions, then naturally the next question is how do you define a fiction? A stoplight doesn’t exist in “nature”, yet in human society it seems to be *true* that a red light means stop. It would be strange to call that a “fiction”, at least in ordinary language. One could deny, therefore that social constructs- like money, countries, and stoplights- therefore are “fictional” in the most useful sense.
3. To what degree do humans really “run the world”? Even if it’s true that humans in the past were able to cooperate at relatively large scales without chaos (which I’m not sure is really fair to say), it seems highly doubtful this applies at the global level. Human systems and societies at that scale seem to be hardly less chaotic (think wars, climate change, environmental destruction, mass starvation, etc), and certainly more harmful, than a Wembley Stadium full of gorillas. While this isn’t evidence that humans can’t cooperate flexibly in *greater* numbers than other animals, it also suggests there may be a limit to our ability to do so. This should check the hubris his thesis otherwise might invite.
Yes, this is not a Ted-worthy talk - it’s one guy bloviating.
Good points and perspectives. I think everyone posting raving comments about Harari should read "Mother's and Other's" by Sarah Blaffer Hrdy, for a much more substantiated, thoughtfully written and scientifically informed description of human evolution, particularly in regards to human sociability/cooperation, which centers female socialization and alloparental care. Another good book, which addresses much of your point 2 is Ian McGilchrest's "The Master and his emissary", which is ostensibly about the human brain, but synthesizes a lot of information from neuro-science and psychology, as well as anthropology, linguistics, evolutionary biology, and sociology/cultural evolution.
Would be amazing if this gentleman could explain his message on the illusion of the "wizards" paper exchange for what matters, to musicians and the poetic artist who preach more and more today, that the worship of the same achieves something meaningful...and what they actually sell themselves and their minds devotion to...
Perfect. 👏🏿👏🏿
This is the talk in TED I have listened to for my first time. I was just impressed.
His book, Sapiens, is the reason why I love the movie Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes.

Excellent.
It's all so obvious when you put it like that!
Mr Harari puts it across with extraordinary clarity. And it's pretty amusing too.
Talks like this is why I subscribed to Ted. I have been wondering about his last point for a while now. As automation and computers replace lower skilled work, the supply of "low skilled" workers will become proportionally greater and greater as demand for basic human skills dwindles. This means lower and lower pay for more and more people who by no fault of their own are not born with a high IQ. As automation and computers get smarter and smarter, humans by comparison get dumber and dumber. It's already happening now and I'm not sure how society is going to deal with it.
I agree completely, my son is 6 years old and I'm encouraging him into electronic and robotic and software engineering, if you can't beat'em, join'em! ;)
theslimeylimey I think less intelligent people should be employed by the government to do landscaping and façade detailing. Our cities have gotten a lot uglier since WW2 and we should reverse that trend. Politicians who pretend that they can save jobs (aka dying industries) are liars that do more harm than good.
Woah, that was an excellent point you made
theslimeylimey I suggest state-sponsored genetic modification of human reproductive cells that carry the DNA for potential bottom-25% IQ.ratings. This is a process that raises its own bar and therefore results in a continuous rise in average human intelligence. This, of course, replaces existing wellfare programs. We're almost there, scientifically.
Hatchepsut Because the highly educated are not going out in 110 degree heat to pick produce or work in factories looking at the same item for 8 hours a day. Robots? Where are the people you're putting out of work to get an income. It needs to be worked out a whole lot more.

@@jesuslanderos.2442 hello Jesus Landeros😊! SAPIENS (A Brief history of humankind)
This is literally the summary of the first chapter of his book.
Do the other chapters in the book expand on these ideas as well as more ideas? How's the book btw?
@@kamu747 Yes, the other chapters of the book provide concepts linking to these ideas and eventually lead up to the present world. The last chapter also gives insight to the present situation and what may happen in the future. The book was great, it was already a long time since I've last read it but I loved it, gave me a better view on human existence, and why we are like we are. Definitely a book to read, in fact, I think everyone should read it.
@@megaraph5551 I'll definitely look into it.
