The Quest for Immortality in Silicon Valley
Silicon Valley has a unique obsession with anti-aging and longevity, with some individuals and groups actively promoting the idea of immortality. Anti-death activism and immortalist views are driving a belief that death from aging is a bad thing and should be eliminated. However, there is significant debate within the longevity field, with some researchers focusing on more conservative approaches and FDA-approved treatments to extend healthy life rather than seeking to live forever. While advancements in anti-aging and longevity are being made, accessibility and equality in accessing these treatments remain concerns.
