Technology Will Make Us Slaves or Demi Gods | Homo Deus

In this video, we explore one of the most unsettling questions of our time: Are humans replacing God—or are we quietly handing our power over to technology?
Based on the ideas from Homo Deus by Yuval Noah Harari, this documentary-style video takes you through humanity’s journey—from fragile hunter-gatherers to the most dominant force on Earth.
For thousands of years, humans struggled with hunger, disease, and war. Today, science and technology have helped us control all three to a large extent. Life expectancy has doubled, artificial organs are becoming reality, and algorithms now understand our behavior better than we understand ourselves. But when survival is no longer the main problem, a deeper question emerges: What is the purpose of human life now?
This video discusses how religion placed humans at the center of creation, how humanism replaced God with human reason, and how we may now be entering a new era—one where algorithms, data, and artificial intelligence begin to make decisions for us. From free will and consciousness to animal suffering, cooperation, and the rise of Dataism, we examine the dark and uncomfortable side of human progress.
Are we becoming gods with god-like powers—or just efficient data points in a system we no longer control?Is the real danger that machines become smarter than us, or that humans slowly stop thinking for themselves?
This video doesn’t offer easy answers. Instead, it holds up a mirror to our time—because in an age of comfort, efficiency, and endless upgrades, perhaps the most human act left is to keep asking difficult questions.
