Aubrey de Grey on why the Methuselarity will happen by 2035 - and why it will be FREE

We met Aubrey de Grey in Paris as he is here for a conference. I will talk not regarding only his work but more about the good impression he left to us. I can say he's an approachable person,down to earth,positive and enthusiastic in what he's doing. This is not a small affair..being a public figure can change somebody in a bad way but that's not his case. Let's beat aging Mr Aubrey de Grey!

I met him once too, he is everything you said. A genuinely great person , very down to earth indeed. Im so happy to have met him :)

Aubrey has had this figured out for 20 years and bit by bit the research and clinical studies confirm he was correct from the outset.

Really informative presentation, thanks. I'd previously assumed everyone was taking a similar approach as Cyclarity with targeting just the oxidised cholesterol, though it sound like that might not be sufficient in the long run. Classic longevity escape velocity scenario - perhaps oxidised cholesterol is an easier target so first treatment to reduce placques might use that, which could buy you a few more years in good health, whilst a more comprehensive approach is developed. This whole area is so exciting given it kills 1 in 4 people - ONE IN FOUR!!!

I am a big fan of Aubrey de Grey. I am just a little bewildered as he is here introduced as Chief Science Officer of SENS Research Foundation. I understand that he had previously been fired, and that lawyers were then employed to reinstate him in his position. I hope that those attempts will prove successful, but I could not find any information about the matter. If in this video it is said that Aubrey de Grey IS Chief Science Officer of SENS Research Foundation, may we conclude that he has already been reinstated successfully? I would truly be grateful for reliable information.

[@JohnnyMagorish]

This was recorded before he was fired

[@endwigast5212]

@Jinglin - Why did he get fired?

[@endwigast5212]

@@Ben-pd2bx I actually knew the reason for his firing. I just wanted @Jinglin to be the one to say it, as @Jinglin said, "I am a big fan of Aubrey de Grey". @Jinglin and too many others see de Grey as some kind of messiah and saviour, to where he can do no wrong short of murder. Such fanboy/girl-ism is so unfortunate. Life extension technologies aim to take humankind at least one step forward, but we will continually slide backward unless we learn to severely curb our sexual improprieties.

[@DrOlegKulikov]

I use an idea proposed by Aubrey 20 years ago. It works. I am 67 and the biological age of my cardiovascular system is below 40-45. Yet, I am struggling to get to the parameters of my age of 18. Aubrey himself doesn't use his ideas on himself and looks not good for his age of 60.

[@viniciusbueno2160]

He looks 80 tbh, something ain't right

[@atherum]

Hopefully even sooner! #Immortality

[@josepbru5402]

At what minute does he say that?

[@squamish4244]

People often criticize Aubrey for being 'off' when he predicted progress against aging when he first started this in 2003. What he made clear then and kept making clear is that nothing would happen without $$$. And he has never gotten much in the way of $$$. He predicted the failure of Calico in 2013 because of its basic research approach, despite its funding. In just the last 5 or 6 years, the $$$ have started pouring into anti-aging research. And no one, absolutely no one, outside of the tech community could have predicted the stunning advance of AI in the past same timeframe. Now, with AlphaFold 2, we can discover drugs in a matter of days instead of what took years just a few...years ago. And more advanced versions of the same technology have already been developed. Combine that with the many other forms of AI advancing with tremendous speed, and who knows what the timelines look like now. I mean literally, nobody knows.

Great job, but you underestimate the unfortunate nature of the FDA and other regulatory agencies. Public choice theory is a big black pill to swallow.

[@johnniejay]

And the FDA underestimates public force of will....people will not continue to watch loved ones dying when it is known that anti-aging medication is sat in FDA clinical trials for a decade. They either reform their processes or these drugs will simply hit the black market / be available via health tourism.

[@snorttroll4379]

They will slow things for sure. The 'ethics' boards too. But luckily we have colombia and places like china where other things are allowed. But the rules will ve changed in the us empire when people foresee the tech, so mouse rejucenation plus a little more

[@twerkinalisha7346]

Yep, let's say this works, which I don't think so. Only the Uber elite and powerful are going to get this, not us peons.

[@Dan-uf2vh]

Yea right .. if it wasn't for advancements in AI and potential simulations acceleration in the near future, it would have taken many decades to work out. NOW it's plausible that we get LEV in 8-12 years and full rejuvination in 20 with restructuring in 25-30.

[@EmmanuelAruya]

I like the optimism. But how can you be so certain?

[@Dan-uf2vh]

@EmmanuelAruya 1. Interest in the domain is much greater. 2. AI simulations in chemistry and biology even without AGI, coupled with ever higher data processing capabilities. 3. Even if some solutions are temporary and otherwise dead end, eventually others pop up with even greater frequency and intensity. If all else fails, eventually some form of nanotechnology will provide a complete solution while in the meantime we can benefit from temporary and partial fixes such as the partial rejuvination (partial epigenetic reset) of organs, which should be coming within the next 10 years.

[@EmmanuelAruya]

@@Dan-uf2vh damn! And all this seems plausible with just 2 or 3 decades of thorough research, what have we been doing all these while. Would still have to fact check all these points you listed out tho. Could you refer me to some source material or link. I'd really appreciate that.

[@Dan-uf2vh]

@@EmmanuelAruya What source material could you possibly need? Just watch some videos of the 90s and see how much technology was improved.

Here’s the problem with scientists snd never getting results that can be applied. They love the process. So much so, that they’re perfectly happy if they could go on hypothesizing for - what did he say - 10 years ago? People want the therapies now. Not 10 years from now. Or even 5.

i used to find Aubrey's argument convincing now i realize the serious flaws in his argument as to how longevity will develop/be adopted: 1) we are not really living in actual democracies ... if voting mattered the people in power wouldn't let you do it 2) the rich and powerful want immortality ONLY for themselves, if they also let everyone else be immortal they would consider it an insult to themselves... 3) younger population solves economic problems? the rich and powerful dont have 'economic problems' only the poor do, i think they already have a plan to replace poor people with robots anyways... robots are easier to control than young people
