Will technology soon make death optional, and are we the last generation that must face mortality? Futurist and inventor Ray Kurzweil outlines his radical vision for defeating aging and achieving practical immortality through emerging biotechnology and nanotechnology. Kurzweil discusses his book "Fantastic Voyage," detailing three bridges to life extension that could allow humans alive today to live indefinitely by maintaining their bodies faster than they deteriorate. The conversation explores current life extension research, from genetic therapies to nanotechnological cellular repair, examining how artificial intelligence will accelerate medical breakthroughs beyond current imagination. Kurzweil addresses the social, economic, and philosophical implications of radical life extension, considering how immortality might transform human civilization and individual purpose. As someone actively pursuing life extension through strict health regimens and supplement protocols, Kurzweil embodies his own theories about bridging to future longevity technologies. This vision of transcending biological limitations challenges our most fundamental assumptions about human existence and the nature of consciousness itself.
