Insert cliche comment about how we don't spend nearly enough money in anti-aging research. Also, he talks quite a bit about extending the lives of smaller organisms. I guess it's all about pragmatism; it's not as easy to experiment that way on chimps or blue whales.

Cool stuff nevertheless.

I guess "deep learning systems" it means so many cameras and RFID tech that if you only sneeze they will offer you paper handkerchiefs with 10% off right before the exit. I haven't decided yet if this leaves me with a bit of discomfort or not.
I'm the type who doesn't use discount cards for the sake of leaving marketing out of my personal life, at least when I'm aware of it.
