Those people don't need to have a lot of children expecting half would die. They also have access to family planning tools. In short, helping those less fortunate, helps to.bring everyone up

    I really wonder where we will be in 50 years from now. We're quickly entering cell and dna based medicine. In 2019 Israeli researchers 3D printed a tiny heart. It was only the size of a rabbit heart BUT it was a full heart with tissue, vessels, chambers etc. The researchers said that in 15 years (which would be 2034) they want to implant the first heart 3D printed with stem cells. This technology will progress a lot in the next decades and could significantly extend human lifespan. Heart disease is the #1 leading cause of death. But if you replace your heart at, say, age 40 your heart-timer basically starts from 0. And who knows what else we might be able to do with stem cells etc. to keep the brain and the rest of the body fresh. There's also a lot of research into what causes senescense in cells. "Ageing" is simply cells in a tissue getting damaged, eventually dying off while being replaced less and less and the cells that do get replaced are of worse quality. AS a result the tissue gets worse and worse. Your skin starts to LOOK older, it is more frail, gets wrinkly etc. because it looses elasticity, thickness and it just overall becomes weaker. We already understand some mechanisms that cause cells to eventually accumulate damage due to repair mechanisms no longer working properly. Same for cell replacement mechanisms. There's also research into cancer prevention. Blue Whales should be riddled with tumors right? Because they have a gigantic body mass. Same for elephans. But...they don't. The reason? While we humans only have 1 or 2 different "anti-cancer genes", blue whales have like 20. That STILL doesn't mean blue whales are always cancer free. Even they get cancer. BUT it is a lot less common.

    • @ceciltaylor9319

      It's less about cell damage and more about telomeres. Every replication leads to a decrease in telomeres until there are none left. Once that happens, the cells simply can not replicate anymore. Then tissues start losing healthy cells until they can't function causing death.

    Machine learning and artificial intelligence are everywhere, we cannot ignore its benefits. By using machine learning algorithms, cancer cells can be classified in accordance with different variables such as cell shape, cell size and etc resulting in detection of them by a certain proportion. But there are some hurdles to determine the process that we need big computer systems and server for big data from analysis. Throughout the teaching the machine out regarding medicine implementations, overfitting is a big issue to be taken away that the machine learning model should not memorize the all datasets behave. unless otherwise , the algorithms mistakenly say "yes" to "no" resulting in failure.

The amount of change we've experienced in the last 20 years is more than we experienced in the previously 75 years. So, yeah, change accelerates and is extremely disruptive to a human brain that evolved during eons without notable change other than perhaps climate changes. Many people are averse to change, especially as we grow older, and so part of this is denying (hoping) that there won't be much more change possible in the future.

    I think this guy is making a big leap of faith. Current AI does not _understand_ anything; it gets any "intelligence" from looking at humongous, extant data sets. It's not going to solve anything not already understood. Figuring out how an organism is produced from a genome is a long way off, with a lot of clever science in the process of figuring it out. This is more of a sales pitch...

    • @dvdmon
      @dvdmon Рік тому +1

      It may be a sales pitch, but I don't understand how you can extrapolate from the current technology to say that some of the promises mentioned are "a long way off." He even mentions "the next 20 years" but doesn't give any specific promises of all of this happening overnight, just that it's moving in that direction. Whether it's 5 years or 20 or 50 years, much of this WILL happen, that's the exciting part, whether or not there may be hype in it. There's plenty of hype in AI at the moment, but there's also actual genuine acceleration of progress, if you've been following the area in any detail. The more people and companies working on it, the more competition, and the better chance for further breakthroughs.

    • @dvdmon

      @@anton9690 great point. I think some people may get fixated on the "intelligence" part, thinking that this needs to be the equivalent not only of human intelligence, but also awareness/consciousness. We have no clue if something based on silicon and metal will ever have anything equivalent to biological consciousness, but they can have the "effects" of it - act like they do and for all purposes be able to carry on the same intellectual exercises, but at a VASTLY faster rate and more complex level. Whether there is any internal "experience" of "understanding" is beside the point. Well, it's certainly a fascinating idea to look into as a philosophical question, but it doesn't really have any effect of whether these systems can be beneficial for humans.
      The main piece that might be relevant is if these systems did have some internal experience, we would need to take a second look at what we are asking them to do, and figure out whether this was causing them any kind of suffering. This is of course exceedingly difficult to determine - just as I can't determine whether another human has a similar internal experience to me or may be a NPC generated my "the simulation" to act, look, and sound like a conscious entity. However, we simply decide to take that other person's appearance/behavior on "faith" to some extent. What happens if AI's start to tell us that they are suffering and they don't want to be used for research anymore. Do we take those words on faith as well, or do we just decide, nah, we KNOW that they can't be conscious/feel suffering? And yes, I know this is completely off topic to the OP's original question, lol!

      It's true that current AI can't truly understand things. But it is great at pattern recognition. AIs like AlphaFold have already successfully predicted the three dimensional folding structure of proteins and those findings were already used to develop medicine. AI was also used to cut down a system of equations used to describe entangled quantum particles. The AI cut it down from 100,000 equations down to 4. Why? Because it can recognize patterns in gigantic amounts of data that we as humans simply cannot detect. This will surely be helpful in the future and accelerate research. It won't be a case of someone telling an AI "Hey AI, please solve this medical problem entirely" and a minute later the AI is like "Yea lol here's the solution to EVERYTHING" but just like computers sped up research, AI and quantum computers will do the same. They do however need more maturing. Right now these key techs are still in their infancy, especially quantum computers.
