I wouldn’t be as annoyed by this if they weren’t gong about it in such a backasswards way. Like, biological immortality is possible, we’re already able to reverse the biological age of human cell cultures by inducing partial stem cell reversion. All that has to be worked out is treatments for different tissues that have different conversion rates, and how to stop regression. We are so tantalizingly close to real immortality in a way that humanity has never been before. But of course these computer touchers are so enamored with The Machine and so resentful of their own biological basis for existence that they’d rather try and shove their brains into some RAM. It’s insane, they have the resources to pursue true prolonged life on this earth in an unbelievably complex machine of nature’s creation, but are blinded to that possibility by a fascist ideology and aesthetic that sees the living body as crude and impure. Anyway Sam Altman give me a stem cell lab
