1 小时 33 分钟Today, I have the pleasure of interviewing George Church.
I don't know how to introduce you.
Honestly, this is not even a exaggeration.
It would honestly be easier to list out the major breakthroughs in biology over the last few decades that you haven't been involved in,
from the Human Genome Project to CRISPR, age reversal to de-instinction.
So you weren't exactly an easy prep.
Sorry.
Okay, so let's start here.
By what year would it be the case that if you make it to that year?
Technology will keep in bio will keep progressing to such an extent that your lifespan will increase by a year every year or more escape velocity sometimes what it's called
for aging Different people have estimates and all those estimates are including mine are gonna be Take with a big grain of salt.
I think that looking at how,
mainly looking at the exponentials in biotechnology and the progress that's been made in understanding,
not just understanding the causes of aging,
but seeing real examples where you can reverse subsets of the aging phenotype.
You're getting close to all of aging.
In other words, you're seeing, instead of just saying,
oh, I'm going to fix the damage in this collagen.
In this tendon, in this limb, you're saying, oh,
I'm going to change a lot of things that are common to age-related diseases,
