It sounds a lot like you want to cure life. We're mortal meat bags, go enjoy life instead of worrying about "solving" the inevitable.


Women and people of color also used to be treated like property, doesn't mean it has to be like that forever.

What's cool with humans is that we're able to reflect on our own being and our societies, and when we group together, we can enforce large-scale changes that improve the lives of millions.

We might be mortal meat bags right now, but maybe it isn't the only way, for better or worse.


Cure death, not life.

And I do enjoy life, that's exactly why I want it to be much much longer.


Cool, I like sci fi too. Now explain me how many dots I have to create out of thin air to connect LLMs to immortality ?


Increased intelligence -> automation and scaling of scientific research -> solving complex problems.

The chain is rather short. You don't even need immortality right away. Longevity escape velocity.
