Longevity Escape Velocity Timeline
- Ray Kurzweil predicts we'll reach "longevity escape velocity" so medical progress extends life faster than time passes.
- He expects being in touch with tech will let longevity increase by a year per year by 2029.
Artificial Pancreas Example
- Ray describes using a glucose monitor and an insulin patch that acts like an artificial pancreas.
- He uses this to illustrate how organ-replacement tech will become safer and more reliable than biological organs.
Brain‑Cloud Integration
- Kurzweil foresees connecting parts of our brain to the cloud in the 2030s to amplify cognition.
- He argues embedding tech in the brain will be more seamless than relying on external devices like smartphones.
