What If We Could Live Forever? The Science and Ethics of Immortality
Living forever sounds like a dream come true, but is it really? We delve into the philosophy and science of immortality and discuss how eternal life could impact humanity.
“The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering.” This quote is attributed to Bruce Lee, the legendary martial artist and actor. He died at the age of 32, but his legacy lives on in his films, books, and philosophy. He is one of the many examples of people who have achieved a form of immortality through their work and influence. But what if we could achieve immortality in a more literal sense? What if we could extend our life span indefinitely, or even preserve our consciousness beyond death?
Immortality is not a fantasy, but a scientific possibility. Advances in biotechnology, nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, and other fields are opening new horizons for human longevity and even immortality. But what are the implications of such a radical transformation of the human condition? We will look at the types of immortality that exists. We will also be exploring some of the benefits and challenges of immortality, as well as some of the moral questions and dilemmas that it poses for individuals and society.
