Reply to comment by Bierculles in A new AI model can accurately predict human response to novel drug compounds by Dr_Singularity

Thought it was more rambling about the bible or whatever, "the mark," is what made me think that, could you explain to me what they meant though if I'm wrong

I think he meant market, as in selling those drugs.

Do you think that just anyone will be able to afford Google's designer senescence ending drugs? Or will it be an exclusive club that you'll have to comply with a chip or tracking system or even to be sterilized for the good of the whole? This has nothing to do with the bible and everything to do with the tyrants elite currently running things. U less we do something about it. Will you take the mark?

Many people in the field of developing these ani-aging drugs actually think that corporations will incentize the lower classes to take these drugs, so that they can exploit the labor of their workers for longer periods of time.

This will prevent companies from having to worry about retraining their workers after someone dies, and it will also make it easier for them to justify lower wages when everyone has an extra 100 years of time to spend unfortunately.

Japan for example, the leading investor in longevity science plans to distribute drugs like this to the general populus, all to stop the population decline of their country and to boost the economy.

So it's not exactly as clear cut to think that it would just be available to the wealthy like a sci-fi novel, reality is more nuanced.

The suicide forest is booming. My daughter was born in Japan. This won't work, once they realize it things will get weird. Reality Is even scarier. The only option is unity, and intergalactic society.
