Joachim Bauer: Humanity in Digital Times | Knowledge for Life

Everyone is eagerly looking towards Silicon Valley, where the pulse of time is beating faster and faster. Every new development in artificial intelligence suggests that we might soon stop thinking. Brain researcher Joachim Bauer warns against this emphatically. His new book "Humanity in Digital Times" will be published in April 2026. In it, he critically questions the "brave new world" of tech billionaires and illuminates how digital offerings such as social media, video games, AI, and chatbots primarily influence young people.

The renowned brain and gene researcher, psychotherapist, physician, and bestselling author Joachim Bauer is one of the most prominent cautionary voices in our rapidly changing world. On April 21, 2026, he will present his new book at 7:30 PM as part of our "Knowledge for Life" series. Admission is free.
