Apparently AI is going to "double our lifespan within 5 years" now.

You know this is absolute quackery, right?

They have to make these absurd claims to bamboozle the masses into allowing them to get away with what they are doing.

Longevity is here. And its here to stay.

We have to remember that Dario Amodei is not a hype-guy. He is a serious scientist. His words carry weight.

Doubling the lifespan would probably amount to around 140 years. In 5 years already, mind you!

So where will we be in 10 years'…

The statement critiques the feasibility of claims about AI doubling human lifespans, comparing it to phrenology and dismissing it as untestable. The tone is skeptical and dismissive, aiming to challenge the credibility of the claim.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement aims to prevent harm by questioning potentially misleading claims, aligning with the principle of doing no harm. [+1]
  2. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement uses strong language ('total bullshit') which could be seen as a personal attack rather than constructive criticism, violating the principle of engaging in constructive dialogue. [-1]
