This is WILD!
Ray Kurzweil, the futurist who predicted the internet, smartphones, and AI says aging ends by 2032 (Save this)
Kurzweil, now 78 years old, told a live audience that humanity will reach longevity escape velocity by 2032 and he explained exactly what that means with mathematical precision.
Right now, for every year you live, you get back approximately five months of life expectancy from medical and scientific progress meaning you are losing roughly seven months of net life per calendar year.
Longevity escape velocity is the threshold where that ratio flips, for every year you live, you get back a full year or more from scientific progress, meaning your biological clock starts running backward.
Kurzweil's prediction is that threshold hits by 2032 and beyond that point, you do not simply stop dying of aging, you actively get younger every year.
The mechanism is AI-driven drug discovery at a scale that was physically impossible five years ago.
By 2030, Kurzweil argues, AI will be able to take a biological problem, generate millions of potential drug candidates, screen all of them, and run trials on simulated digital populations compressing decades of clinical research into weeks.
This is already happening.
David Sinclair's lab at Harvard used AI to virtually screen 8 billion molecules against aging targets and is now preparing human trials moving from $400,000 gene therapies toward a $100 pill that can reset biological age by 50 to 95% in four weeks.
Sinclair has already demonstrated the ability to reverse aging in mammals restoring sight in mice with optic nerve damage and reversing Alzheimer's symptoms in lab models.
Kurzweil's track record is what makes the 2032 claim impossible to dismiss.
He predicted the internet's global dominance in 1990, the defeat of a world chess champion by a computer in 1998, pocket-sized devices as primary communications tools in 1999, and AI passing professional exams in the mid-2020s, all before anyone else was saying it publicly.
If you are under 60 and in reasonable health, his message is stay alive, stay healthy, and get to 2032.
The tools on the other side of that date will be unlike anything medicine has ever produced.
De dag dat Elon Musk tegen de adverteerders van X zei: “Go fuck yourselves”, was hij 220 miljard dollar waard.
Vandaag is hij 1,1 biljoen dollar waard.
Dat alleen al is een van de meest bevredigende “fuck you”-momenten uit de moderne geschiedenis. Terwijl linkse journalisten en politici al jaren alles op alles zetten om hem kapot te maken, groeit hij uit tot de rijkste en invloedrijkste mens op aarde. Hun grote vijand, de man die Twitter kocht om het vrije woord te redden, blijkt onstuitbaar.
De meeste Vlamingen beseffen nog altijd niet hoe uitzonderlijk briljant Musk werkelijk is. Ze slikken de karikatuur die de mainstreammedia van hem schetsen: een impulsieve, rechtse trol. Niets is minder waar. Musk is geen geldwolf. Hij is een visionair die oprecht bezorgd is dat de mensheid door domheid, woke-ideologie en kortzichtigheid alles naar de knoppen helpt. Daarom bouwt hij raketten. Daarom wil hij naar Mars. Daarom vecht hij voor maximale vrijheid van meningsuiting.
En hij wint.
Hij ontmaskert dag na dag de leugens en manipulatie van linkse media en politici, zeker in Europa. De hypocrisie, de censuur, de dubbele standaarden: het wordt steeds zichtbaarder. Steeds meer mensen zien het. Hoe harder de journalisten en politici op hem blijven inhakken, hoe sneller ze zichzelf ontmaskeren. Elke aanval boemerangt.
Het worden nog bijzonder boeiende jaren. De EU en de Europese elites zullen proberen hem te stoppen, te reguleren, te kleineren. Het zal ze niet lukken. Musk speelt een ander spel, op een ander niveau. Hij denkt in decennia en lichtjaren, terwijl zij in verkiezingscycli en subsidies denken.
Schitterend om te zien.
De toekomst lacht degenen toe die durven te bouwen in plaats van te verbieden. En Elon Musk is nog maar net begonnen.
Trump riserva agli americani l’accesso ai modelli AI più avanzati. È la prima volta che l’Occidente sperimenta una frattura tecnologica con effetti diretti sulla competitività economica, culturale e sociale. L’Europa paga oggi il prezzo delle sue politiche restrittive sull’AI: un ritardo rispetto a USA e Cina che rischia di essere strutturale e irreversibile.

Qualche gonzo mette in dubbio che l'OMS spenda solo 45 milioni per medicine e apparecchiature mediche per l'Africa. E' scritto sul loro bilancio. Pagina 102. Protestate con loro.
45 milioni medicine, 53 milioni spese di viaggio 🙄, 247 milioni stipendi.

Imagine if Stephen Hawking could communicate faster than a speed typist or auctioneer. That is the goal.
