We're like, we have this breakthrough new technology to solve this problem that we really should have just solved with perhaps different choices as a society and as individuals.

I think the same way the Europeans have aspired to the four-day work week, and they're like, this is better for human flourishing and families, and I think that's right.

But Americans have to do it the American way, which is we create this incredible new technology that makes us so much more productive that we can actually reduce our workload.

from five days to four days and maybe even three and a half days.

So my second follow-up question is, you know, if we radically extend human life, do you think we're sort of emotionally, spiritually, societally prepared for people who live to 120, 150, 200?

The a16z Show

Right.

Presumably, there'll be marketing, but not to humans, to agents.
