As Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly advanced and widespread, it significantly empowers individuals across various sectors while simultaneously raising critical questions about humanity’s future—an unprecedented challenge explored by three distinguished thinkers in Genesis.

By processing vast amounts of data, gaining autonomy, and acting as a bridge between humans and reality, AI will assist us in tackling major crises, including climate change, geopolitical tensions, and economic disparities. It has the potential to unlock some of the universe’s greatest mysteries, transform diverse fields such as medicine and architecture, and uplift the human spirit to extraordinary levels. However, it also brings challenges of unprecedented scale and intensity—threatening our ability to make independent judgments, testing our connection with the divine, and possibly initiating a new phase of human evolution. Who will we select to guide our species through this uncharted territory? Or have we, perhaps unwittingly and passively, made that choice already?

Genesis presents a balanced approach between unfounded fear and blind faith, offering a practical framework for navigating the AI era. Co-authored by esteemed statesman Henry Kissinger alongside technologists Eric Schmidt and Craig Mundie, this important work prepares today’s decision-makers—essentially all of us—for the choices that lie ahead, enabling us to harness the benefits of AI while safeguarding against the darker forces unleashed by this technological revolution.
