Aging sucks. I think with the tremendous computing resources presently wasted on vapid AI slop and endless fart videos, we could instead use it for anti-aging research.

Let's just say that even if you where immortal, there is still the issue of your "soul" aging. In other words, you know you are old, and you won't enjoy playing Pokemon Platinum in the same way.

Society will also increasingy isolate you in various ways.

I'd rather be isolated than dead.

Depends. Will I still have my glasses, now that I have time to read all the books in the library?
