Francis Fukuyama is a Stanford political scientist and the author of (among many other works) The End of History and the Last Man—arguably the most influential work in political science of the past half-century.
If “History” is driven by technology, how does Fukuyama now view biotech and AI—and their potential to usher in a new, post-human history?
These are difficult questions, but I wanted to ask Frank about topics that are both important and (at least for AI) on which he has spoken little until now.
We also get a sneak peek at his forthcoming book and discuss his ideas on bureaucracies, delegation, and state capacity.
