Writer, Philosopher, Bioethicist | Longevity + EA I’m currently working on a non-fiction book aimed at shifting the ethics, policy and public narrative of age-reversing technologies. My book will survey different, potential futures for healthcare, and respond to questions like: “If we engineer ourselves out of all disease and eventually mortality, will we risk engineering ourselves, too, out of meaning and purpose?” (The answer, I think, is yes. But only as much as we engineered ourselves out of meaning and purpose in the Stone Age, when to be human meant to hunt and gather for one’s every meal—until it meant something different.) I’m particularly interested in the human proclivity towards death-embracing narratives, and its harmful effects on economies and societies.
