Former Google Enginner Ray Kurzweil.
Renowned inventor and futurist Ray Kurzweil has shared his vision of how humans could attain immortality in the future. In an interview with LiveMint, Kurzweil proposed that technology could provide a means of extending human life indefinitely.
According to Kurzweil, humans will eventually be able to use nanobots, microscopic robots, to constantly monitor and repair the body at the cellular level, effectively slowing down or even reversing the aging process. He also believes that merging human consciousness with artificial intelligence (AI) is necessary for achieving immortality.
Kurzweil’s theories are not without criticism, with some questioning the ethics of extending human life indefinitely and the practicality of his proposed solutions. However, his ideas have gained traction in some circles, and Kurzweil continues to be a prominent figure in the world of futurism and technology.
Regardless of the validity of Kurzweil’s ideas, the concept of using technology to extend human life raises important ethical and philosophical questions about the meaning of life and the role of technology in society. As technology continues to advance, the debate surrounding immortality and the future of humanity is sure to continue.
