Why we age and how we can avoid it
Posted by Administrator under Ideas from the edge
Aubrey de Grey’s talk on ‘Why we age and how we can avoid it’.
Whether we agree with Grey’s hypothesis or not, this topic is one that fundamentally questions what it means to live a human life. Grey argues that the first person who lives to 1000 years old may already have been born. That’s an idea from the edge.
The Ted.com website, upon which this presentation is shown, presents some of the greatest ideas about the future from some of the greatest and most controversial minds. It’s well worth browsing.
