Question

How modern tchnology is changing the life expectancy?

Answer 1

Life expectancy is currently increasing at a rate of 3 months per year in the US.  This increase is exponential not linear.  In 15 years life expectancy will be increasing at a rate of more than 1 year per year.

This is being driven by information technologies.  Bio-medicines & nano-tech are racing into the medical science community & will be in full bloom within a very few years.

Answer 2

Well, we have invented spell and grammar checkers which lower stress, thus enabling a more peaceful existance.

But soon we will invent robot bodies to house our personalities, thereby achieving immortality.

After a few eons, we will abandon those robot bodies and exist as pure energy, free to swim the universe as true intergalactic beings.
