AI-Curious with Jeff Wilser

AI, Transhumanism, and the Quest for Longevity, w/ Futurist Dr. Natasha Vita-More

15 Aug 2024

Description

Can AI help us live forever?Okay, that's the click-baitey version of the question, but the real version is far more nuanced. Our guest today is a leader of the transhumanism movement -- Dr. Natasha Vita-More -- and she explains what it is, what it's *not*, how AI is involved, and why we are likely to see a dramatic improvement to our lifespan...Dr. Vita-More dispels some common misconceptions, that transhumanism is just trying to turn us into cyborgs. The roots of transhumanism, at heart, go back to the birth of philosophy -- she's as inspired by Plato as she is the latest tech.We get into all of this, from advancements in data analysis to nano-robots that can repair our cells.Super fun conversation - hope you enjoy.Dr. Natasha Vita-More on Wikipedia:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natasha_Vita-Morehttps://www.natashavita-more.com/https://x.com/NatashaVitaMoreStay Connected:• 🐦 Twitter/Xhttps://x.com/jeffwilser• 💼 LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffwilser/• 🖥️ JeffWilser.comwww.JeffWilser.com🎧 Subscribe to AI-Curious:• Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ai-curious-with-jeff-wilser/id1703130308• Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/70a9Xbhu5XQ47YOgVTE44Q?si=c31e2c02d8b64f1b• YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@jeffwilser
