  1. They've been trying this for hundreds of years, remember Epic of Gilgamesh was about seeking eternal life. I think it will be cracked, however far too late for anyone alive today.

  2. Actually it would be more efficient to create longer-lived workers, so you don't need an 18-20 year incubation time for growth/education every generation.

  3.  @MagiRaz  Idk, before like 1800 most of the effort was literally ingesting poison. DNA was only discovered about 100 years ago, I just think it will take more time than in a human lifespan to sort out the issues.

  4. .01% of Americans live to 100, 85% of them women. May the odds be in your favor lol

  5. Mice live like 1-2 years they are a poor analog for aging in humans

  6. Not really. If Sinclair and the like were actually close to cracking aging all the billionares would be throwing gobs of money at him. The fact that they are so far away is why billionaires are not wasting their money

  7.  @NickWestgate  Interesting I read the wiki page on altos labs, they literally say they are focused on research without plans for a clinical product. Maybe you should read more carefully. We were born too early it is fine to accept that and not live in fantasy.

  8.  @dunhillsupramk3  Uh...are you trying to disprove anything I said? I said since we can clearly see billionaires are not plowing money into anti-aging research, it must be very far off from reality. So no, we don't have the tech to reverse aging and will not have it for clinical use in this century.

  9.  @dunhillsupramk3  So...we don't actually have the tech since we haven't tested it to make sure it works. Got it

  10. Makes me jealous tbh. I don't really envy billionaires but I sure will envy the babies born on the day I die

  11.  @J-Hue  dead planets dont care what you do to them, only sentient beings can care

  12. What do you mean? 90+% of deaths are natural, so you still want to die?

  13. They've failed numerous times to make a cure. Also curing Alzheimer's won't increase lifespan you have to somehow reverse cellular damage at every cell

  14.  @ThatLennyBoi  Only in the field of computation. This video is talking about biological research, which is very slow. The last novel antibiotics were discovered in the 80s for reference
