Will We Live to 1,000? Scientist Claims First Person Who Will Do It Has Already Been Born

For several years now, technologies It is advancing at an unimaginable speed. Machines working alone, robots delivering food and clean sheets to your hotel room door… are catching up with humans. If there was one thing they seemed to have no control over, it was life expectancy. But now, thanks to biotechnology, artificial intelligence and nanobots, humans can live to be 1000. In fact, the first person to surpass them would already have been born.

Achieve elongation Life expectancy This is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. In fact, thanks to advances in education, health, technology and social services, this is being achieved. Spain is an example. According to the latest statistics from the National Institute of Statistics (INE), over 245,000 citizens will live over 100 years in 50 years.

Now the goal, according to scientist Raymond Kurzweil, winner of the National Presidential Medal of Technology and Innovation in 1999, is for humans to live to 1,000 years, which is what his latest book The singularity is closer, is already achieved thanks to the union biotechnology and artificial intelligence.

Thus, according to Kurzweil in a scientific journal wired, The only solution is to cure “aging itself.” In short, he says, to extend lifespan and enable people to live longer, it is necessary to be able to repair “damage caused by aging at the level of individual cells and local tissues.” To this end, the scientist is already exploring several options to achieve this, but he believes that the most promising ultimate solution is nanorobots.

They will replace our organs

According to the scientist, the phase of human expansion will be divided into three phases. The first is based on knowledge in the field of nutrition and pharmacy. The second, in which we are now, is life extension, carried out by merging “biotechnology with artificial intelligence.” In fact, he predicts, by the 2030s, the third phase will begin, in which nanotechnology will be used to completely overcome the limitations of the world. biological organs“.

Similarly, he argues that if nanotechnology solves enough of the problems of aging in 2050 that 100-year-olds can begin to live to 150, we will have until 2100 to solve “any new problems that might arise at that age.” In this sense, he says that the first person capable of living to 1,000 “has already been born.” Furthermore, he says that although These theories sound “absurd” There are good reasons to regard this as a “likely future.”
