For #webinarWednesday, I want to address aging. I was recently at a meeting of cryogenic/maximum lifespan enthusiasts and had the honor of meeting Dr. Bryant Villaponteau and Dr. Junli Feng, two of the key scientists at the GERON corporation and true pioneers in the field of telomeres.

Will artificial intelligence be the downfall of humanity?
