When will humans be able to live for 1000 years?

World scientists shared speculations and told when people will be able to live 1000 years. About it writes Daily Mail.

Experts in the field of technology and biomedicine say that humanity is on the threshold of breakthroughs that will allow people to live 1000 years.

Some of the leading futurologists and researchers have already given dates when this could happen.

Among those making predictions are Dr. Ian Pearson, UK-based futurologist Ray Kurzweil, and biomedical expert Aubrey de Grey.

They all see the path to a 1,000-year life span in different ways, but agree on one thing: it’s not far off.

Pearson believes that by 2050, the most affluent people will be able to achieve this result through a combination of genetic engineering, robotics, and digital consciousness transfer.

According to him, a person’s mind can be downloaded either into an android body or into virtual reality.

At first, such technologies will be available only to the elite, but by the 2060s, the middle class will be able to afford them.

Ray Kurzweil, known for his accurate technology predictions, believes that by 2029, artificial intelligence will equal human intelligence.

This will be the beginning of an era he calls the Singularity. And by 2045, man and machine will completely merge, “opening the way to immortality.”

AI will make basic goods – food, housing – much cheaper, he said, and brain-computer interfaces like Elon Musk’s Neuralink will connect the mind to the data cloud.

As a result, human intelligence will increase millions of times, and personality can be copied and transferred into new bodies.

Aubrey de Grey, a specialist in gerontology, argues that 21st-century medicine has the potential to make aging a reversible process.

He believes that by 2050, old age will be seen as any other treatable disease.
