Continuing from the previous thread regarding biological immortality. People could still die from trauma, just wouldn’t die from old age, disease or cancer. That future is coming if we don’t blow ourselves up first, and IMHO it’s closer than most people realize. It’s a difficult engineering problem to solve, but between things like CRISPR and better weak AI, actual progress will be made in our lifetime. I don’t think that such a future would be a bad thing. It would force everyone to think more about the long term.
