Well, imagine being able to actually predict the future. It would suck. There would always be an optimal choice all of the time. You would be a slave to your prescience. The only way free will is possible is that we are oblivious to the fut

Well you could grow a clone body and then use a brain transplant. This is still within the science fiction territory, but much more realistic than fixing aging or an actual teleporter. The brain would still be old, but it would probably ben
