Rich People Will Become Immortal ‘God-Like’ Cyborgs In 200 Years – Historian 





Rich people living 200 years from now are likely to become “god-like” immortal cyborgs, while the poor will die out, an historian has claimed.

Yuval Noah Harari, a professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, said the merger of humans and machines would be the greatest evolution since the appearance of life.

He added the greatest minds in computer engineering already believe death is a mere technological problem with a solution.

Harari said advances in technology will enable humans to become god-like creatures, as different from today’s humans as chimpanzees are from us.

The historian is author of the acclaimed Sapiens: A Brief History of Human Kind, a book which has already been translated into more than 30 languages.

Harari was speaking at the Hay Festival of Literature & Arts in Wales, one of the UK’s most prominent cultural events.
