what possible priorities... sounds like the humanity extincting AGI has already gotten free /s
If civilization needs to adopt such measures it must be in deep crisis.
- s1artibartfast 3y agoIgnoring the sarcasm, hey there's a fascinating question. It asked what our society's priorities are. These aren't new questions or unique. Any country on the planet could extend lifespan if it wanted to spend more money. The question is who pays or what services do you cut. Would you cut schools to extend lifespan 5 years? Maybe everyone lives in tiny little boxes but people live to 90. An American Healthcare System there is low hanging fruit where you could improve outcomes for a low cost. That said, how far do you take it?
- bohadi 3y agoNo, yeah. Suppose I am arguing for a light touch. Assuming one were at the levers of power (of the state apparatus, of the corporation, etc). That humility is lacking, for even the very wise cannot see all ends. It is a conservative point of view, what's the rush anyway. The next generation may have better data.
