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

AI-Curious with Jeff Wilser

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.
