If you could live forever, as some #longevity and anti #aging researchers claim will be possible someday, would you even want to?
I'd love to hear your reasonings via comments, and please respond to the poll. I'm working on an article about the science of all this for @medium.
@robertroybritt @medium First, the planet won’t sustain it. There wouldn’t be population replacement. No kids, no new people. We would need to colonize other worlds to achieve it. And then, at what stage of our life we end up living? Forever old? Forever teen? Forever 30-50 years old? And it probably will be expensive to pay. Only people with access to lots of money would be able to afford it. Another hit to those struggling, which will be now “finite” vs the immortal rich. Sounds distopic 2/2
@iPabloSB These are all great points and serious questions that would have to be addressed.
