Artificial intelligence: towards a new deterministic civilization?. Julien Gobin tempers the observations on the decline of the West to oppose a future that is hardly more radiant: that of a new civilization where algorithms and artificial intelligence will replace free will.

The author does not avoid any of the problems facing our civilization: the reign of relativism and post-truth. He thus questions the fall in the birth rate to better highlight the contradictions of our contemporaries: concerned about the future, but incapable of imagining a life after them that is different.
