I must be new and stupid but what exactly is the technology that we are talking about when we assume people en masse might be able to live “centuries“. From what I’m aware of it won’t go past 130 in most cases and will not get widespread for a few decades at least. I haven’t heard of any tech that would allow actual centuries.

People have been living longer and longer for decades, researchers of aging believe the first 200 year old has been born. Think about the medical progress made in 100 years, if the projections continue we will be living LONG long enough that technology in other places are likely to change fundamental aspects of living often
