Who? I’ve never heard a single person say this, ever.
Reddit and in particular r/singularity are filled with them
I have never heard anyone bring either of these up, ever. By who? What even is that besides a sci-fi thought experiment?
See my previous response
None of the research or advancements I have seen give me any indication we have made a dent in the seeming genetic hard stop for humans at ~120 years.
Yep, exactly this.
I also have seen nothing that indicates we have been able to reverse the effects of aging, only slow their effects.
Yep.
That’s 5 / minute (as another commenter pointed out) or 1 every 12 seconds. If a human bricklayer worked that slow, my guess is they’d be fired

Unicorn dust and glitter apparently
AI is on an exponential growth path.
Prove it. I would love to be wrong, but it doesn’t seem that way
Tbh, for our generation i don’t think it even matters, since we ain’t getting there anyway. These exoplanets are 10’s if not 100’s of lightyears away and theres no guarantee that any of them are even habitable.
Even for getting to proxima centuari, 4.2 lightyears away and the nearest star to earth, the most optimistic thing I’ve heard is “we could maybe get the travel time down to 80 years if (and big if) we travel at 10% lightspeed”.
Now imagine how we’re going to get to an exoplanet even 30 lightyears away.
The reality is our generation was simply born too early for many of the things talked about in futurist circles.

Exactly. Reverse aging is IMHO beyond our lifetimes.
I’m assuming these would be more for archival purposes than consumer grade data storage.
