I don't know why it needs to start with Silicon Valley necessarily. Because we're a bunch of socially-awkward people? We just saw the Jeffrey Epstein thing unfold, and who-knows what well-connected old-money/old-power folks were serviced by him and Ghislaine Maxwell. If they could extend their life and get their pickings of young girls, you bet they'd do it.
This old-eating-the-young thing has been going on for time immemorial. It's encoded into our mythology, of Saturn eating his children so that they wouldn't usurp him. And it's not just our (i.e. Western) culture either.

No, It’s because Peter Thiel was (perhaps still is) reportedly interested in it, and that was a big enough story to be eventually lampooned by the comedy show Silicon Valley.
