Not sure if you're serious or joking? Surely the effort would be better spent to genuinely increase quality of life.

  Well, genuinely increasing QoL requires me to convince a large mass of people. Developing this technology only needs progress against nature. The former problem is generally intractable for me.

    That's like solving the problem of not having a meaningful relationship (and sex) with watching porn. It's a substitute alright. It's also not a solution, just a crutch.

      Saw that you got downvoted for your metaphor. I'm not surprised as HN is extremely defensive of porn, which I guess makes sense, sadly, given the demographics. But I wanted to go out of my way to say thank you for speaking against it.

      Crutches are useful tools. We still produce and recommend lots of actual crutches every day for a good reason.

        Don't think we use them as long term solutions over things like physiotherapy though.
