When AI takes our superpower: Harari at Davos (WEF 2026)
Yuval Noah Harari’s Davos address – “An Honest Conversation on AI and Humanity” – felt like stepping onto a ridge line where the air is thinner and the view is suddenly wider.

Sharamentsa – a village of about 100 indigenous men, women and children of the Achuar tribe…… Continue reading Echoes of the rainforest – from Amazonia to London
