How do live forever?
Hi guys /b/ reporting in.
How would you guys go about obtaining biological immortality? I have a theory that I have that may be able to pull this off but wanted to listen to "experts".

If we could do that, don't you think we would have?

It's well-known public knowledge, feasible and cheap. We just don't do it because we prefer to live a short life and die early.

You can achieve immortality if you stop telomere destruction but then you have to figure out some way how to not get cancer everywhere in your body.

Either that or find some way how to make you cells stop dividing while also not dying at the same time.

The easier way is to mess with the hypothalamus to de-age the body over and over as its possible for someone to be biologically younger than their chronological age.

Another way to achieve some sort of immortality is to completely SLOW DOWN the human aging process to the point where it takes 40 years for a person to go from 20 to 25.

Perhaps finding stopping ourselves from biological aging would give us immortality.

Yes, it's the whole lifespan vs healthspan thing.

They have already identified genes responsible for healthspan. It's just a matter of time at this point.

When people are able to live for hundreds of years, they will begin to complain that they still die psychological deaths, because "that guy from 100 years ago is dead. I'm a totally different person today." Which would be absolutely true and not just a metaphor. Hell, it's true already for a lot of people with our marginally lengthened lifespans compared with just a few centuries ago.

>> No.7095731

>>7095719
in a couple centuries we would have already perfected biological immortality though. Besides if we found some way how to remove the emotion of sadness out of our mental makeup then it would stop 100 year old future humans from commiting suicide after getting bored.

Odd's are that clinical immortality will be much farther in the future. Longevity will potentially be in a generation or two. You probably won't be alive to see it, or you will be too old to make use of it. It probably won't even be available to the public, or affordable.

On the other hand I can actually see longevity being apart of the "medical coverage" for the worlds politicians way before the peasants get to see it.

It's ok, my goal isn't to become biological immortal but become a machine bent on meatbags' extermination.

You need a way to replenish the telomers. Then you can do that, you can live forever, provided you do not die of something else than old age

>> No.7098119

Personally I think it's going to come about though some Ship of Theseus style gradual replacement of every part of your body. If you replaced dying neurons with artificial versions you could eventually replace the brain without worry about the moral issues behind destroying the brain you're copying.

There more than likely wouldn't be immortality pills. Longevity treatments would probably have to be performed by specialists in gene therapy, along with specialists from other fields, like neurology.

At first, only the mega rich would be able to afford it. The "everyone else" alternative would probably be a very risky black market procedure in the same vein as back alley abortions.

If there was a pill it would probably be a carrier medium for advanced nano robots that would carry out some of the procedure at a cellular level.
