This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Firing the Cloud: How Humanity Survived and Accelerated is a sweeping, provocative journey through 15,000 years of human history tracing how we evolved from small, fire-lit bands of hunter-gatherers to a globally networked civilisation living inside a digital cloud.
The book explores the great transitions that shaped us: the Agricultural Revolution’s trade of autonomy for stability, the Industrial Age’s relentless acceleration and the Technological Era’s shift from reality to virtuality. Each chapter weaves anthropology, history, and systems thinking to reveal what we gained and what we lost at every turn.
Thoughtful, urgent and ultimately hopeful, this audiobook challenges listeners to become memory-keepers of the human story and to shape a future that is not only faster, but wiser.
