People are not stupid. Once a proof-of-concept is demonstrated and an achievable goal for humans is available all we have are pipe dreams. Regardless of how scientifically sound those dreams might be.
There has been ZERO robust rejuvenation of a naturally-aged, complex animal. There's nothing for the general public to buy into. A lot of us are optimistic, engaged and informed about some cutting edge ideas and niche advances. But at the end of the day, there's nothing tangible to sell the idea.

The future of Foundation Models will be embodied agents that proactively take actions, endlessly explore the world, and continuously self-improve. What does it take?

Climate change doesn't mean Michael Bay disaster movie.
The weather patterns will continue to shift. Some small underdeveloped nations will struggle. Although it's not their fault, it is their problem non the less.
Economically resilient, developed nations will manage, even if some of their citizens will be temporarily impacted. Just like they have been for decades.
People and society will go on. That being said, humans where never meant to be a permanent fixture of the ecosystem anyway. So it doesn't really matter if they don't.
What I'm wondering is how many mass migration events will take place and what impact it will have. That's where the problems will come from. People wanting the safety that others will have. Will people's kill count be greater than the climate's?

Like others said, computer generated speech mimicry has been demonstrated already.

Artificially degrading the mice DNA and then inducing DNA repair is not rejuvenation.
They would have to apply their methodology to genetically diverse, elderly mice to demonstrate robust rejuvenation.
Reversing and artificially induced phenotype that resembles aging us a nice lab trick that has been done before.
