Yes we will have indefinite life spans in 20 years give or take 5 years, maybe even early with AI assisted research. What problems will occur? wew lad.

What relevance would doubling the lifespan have?

The psyche is a dangerous thing

IF space travel is a thing you can just keep cruising the stars till you run out of fuel to burn.

Took a break from /sci/ for a while and there were always a ton of transhuman/longevity threads. Now there are barely any. Thoughts on that?

there still are, you probably just remember a time period when some relevant paper came out and the media exploded and so did threads on /sci/ about immortality

What bothers me is that simple dietary changes can already increase life expectancy, but people rather have some quick fix: swallow some pill or get fixed otherwise while continueing to smoke, drink and eat greasy food and so on and so on

Well, it happened before and it will happen again. Whether you believe it or not. There are records of people living up to 8 or 9 hundred years old.

I don't know what effects it had on our society in the past, unfortunately.
