""You're pre-programmed to die. And so if you change the program, you will live longer," he said."
""When you consider the fact that your body is extremely synchronized in its age, the clock must be incredibly obvious," he said. "Nobody has an old left arm and a young right arm. Why is that? What's keeping them all in sync?""
""I wouldn't want the best ophthalmologist with the steadiest hand out there with a hand laser on my eyeball. It's going to be like that," Musk said."
A longer human lifespan can be achieved by altering a biological program that controls synchronized aging across tissues. Every part of the body ages in sync, implying a central clock or coordinating mechanism that can be identified and modified. Synchronous aging involves genetics and hormonal signals that coordinate aging across tissues. Advances in AI, automation, and robotics are expected to blur boundaries between medicine and technology. Humanoid robots could replace human surgeons and improve surgical outcomes within a few years by reducing human error and bypassing lengthy experience-dependent skill acquisition. Automated procedures such as LASIK already demonstrate benefits of machine-controlled medical interventions.
