Peak Humankind

These days you might have heard the phrase 'Peak Economic Activity', or 'Peak Apple' etc.  signifying a point in time that the economic cycle has reached a climactic and maximum efficiency threshold.  A 'Peak Apple' idea suggests that this trillion dollar machine cannot continue producing more i products and generate gargantuan profits at the same rate as it did before.

This idea extrapolated tomorrow and decades from now are the primary thesis of historian Yuval Harari's writings.  In the primary narrative there is a concept that suggest our current political system has simply broken down.  Not broken to manage our current day to day activity but rather provide for a grand vision for the future.

A future that defines what our humanity might look like and what the needs might be.  People in general will figure out that the civilization as an idea might itself not exist.  The idea that our very existence will be drastically different and might likely not need us to be around is fantastically ironic yet likely.

We as a species might simply be at our peak performance and will now be shifting gears to become inorganically into something transformative.  If we do not act decisively and with forethought he concludes we may be too late to save ourselves.  What is needed is true global collaboration on deciding how best to address the tangible threats of technology as we look at tomorrow.
