    This and anti aging tech is terrifying to me. We have too many old people grasping onto wealth and power as it is. Do not enable them to do it for longer please.

      The longer it goes on, the more likely it is that the youngers will radicalize and violently shake the buff geriatrics from the money tree.

      Cleo Abrams did a good video on that and her conclusion is that if the stuff does work it’s not some magic reversal or absolute no aging ever technology, I think we’ve got a whole world away before we can get no aging. Adding a few years to someone’s life or more realistically preventing diseases due to faulty organs is something we can all benefit from. I don’t even know if this stuff will be done during my lifetime but I can hope that the next generation won’t have to watch themselves break down slowly.
