Harari: AI is native to bureaucracy, bypassing physical world for symbolic power

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Yuval Noah Harari posits that large language models are inherently suited to the symbolic, virtual layer of human civilization, unlike humans who are physically grounded.

This allows AI to gain significant societal influence by manipulating legal, financial, and bureaucratic systems, potentially leading to a future where humans are subject to AI-generated and maintained symbolic orders. AI

IMPACT AI's ability to operate within symbolic systems could reshape societal power structures by influencing legal and financial frameworks without direct physical interaction.

    <h1> 赫拉利这个观点的完整拆解（出自他《Nexus》以及近年访谈） </h1> <p>核心一句话：<strong>人类文明本身，很大一部分就是一套由语言、文本、规则构成的“共享虚构虚拟系统”；而大模型AI原生适配这个符号虚拟层，它不需要先像人类一样，扎根物理世界、进化出肉身感知，才能在文明里获得权力、参与协作甚至重塑这套系统</strong>。</p> <p>这个论断建立在赫拉利一贯的底层历史框架之上：智人之所以统治地球，不是因为体能最强，而是独有能力去相信、传递<strong>主体间虚构故事</strong>——金钱、公司、国家、法律、合同、股权、…
