#life-extension

When we figure out what causes aging, I think we'll find it's incredibly obvious. It's not a subtle thing. The reason I say it's not a subtle thing is because all the cells in your body, you know, pretty much age at the same rate. I've never seen someone with an old left arm and a young right arm ever in my life, so why is that? There must be a clock that is synchronizing across 35 trillion cells in your body,

Imagine you're the leader of one of the most powerful nations in the world. You have everything you could want at your disposal: power, influence, money. But, the problem is, your time at the top is fleeting. I'm not talking about the prospect of a coup or a revolution, or even a democratic election: I'm talking about the thing even more certain in life than taxes. I'm talking about death.

Peter Diamandis envisions a future where death may become optional, arguing that advancements in technology and understanding of biological systems could allow for extended life. He noted that it's a challenge, likening the human body to a complex machine with forty trillion cells, each executing billions of reactions. He expressed optimism about the role of AI and robotics in unraveling these mysteries, stating, 'We are linear thinkers in an exponential world,' emphasizing the potential acceleration of research through technological innovations.
