The theory of "longevity" in the age of technology

There will be people living up to 1,000 years old on Earth in this day and age. This is the statement of a famous British scientist, who is determined to control the life and death of mankind by finding the answer by way through the theory called “The Fountain of Youth”.

Dr Aubrey de Gray, an anti- aging expert based in the US, believes that new biotechnology will help us live centuries longer.

“I find it strange that people think this is a fictional statement,” Dr Gray told the media. His team at the Anti-Aging Research Foundation (SENS) in Silicon Valley, California (USA) is developing techniques to correct the deterioration of the body in later years. These include the technique of getting rid of the “junk” inside cells , which naturally accumulate over the years as you age, as well as getting rid of bad or damaged cells.

The treatments will involve the use of “biological hacking” – editing your own cells and DNA.

The treatments will involve the use of “biological hacking” – editing your own cells and DNA to make permanent changes in the body. The injection or swallow will modify your genes in an attempt to turn off the aging mechanism in your body, extending your lifespan far beyond what nature intended.

The work of the SENS Foundation has caught the attention of Google founder Peter Thiel, who is financially supporting their research. And according to Dr. de Grey, the biggest obstacle in the future is the public. The British scientist said that : “The common misunderstanding about the nature of the theory of immortality” threatens to hinder research because many people oppose the idea of improving humanity. But this is not the only issue that worries him.

Besides, scientists have many objections to the idea of “biological hacking” and criticize it as reckless and irresponsible because we do not know the long-term effects of the treatment being studied. save this. Many questions about rationality are raised.

According to Professor Richard Miller from the University of Michigan (USA): “Dr. de Gray’s lifelong goal is so unreasonable that it does not receive any respect in the scientific community.”

However, the quest to extend human life is gaining more scientific momentum in Silicon Valley. The oldest people on Earth have an average lifespan of around 120, but tech moguls with plenty of cash to burn are turning to bizarre treatments as a gamble to try to escape the cycle of birth and death. course. Some “believers” pay thousands of dollars to have stem cells injected into their bodies, while others electrocute their own brains…

An even more gruesome plan by the lunatics trying to prolong their lives is to transfuse the blood of young people directly into the veins.
