Ray Kurzweil has long been known for his bold predictions about the future of technology and humanity.

His forecasts often focus on the convergence of biotech, AI , and nanotechnology to radically extend human capabilities.

Now, he claims humanity is just four years away from its most transformative leap yet, achieving 'longevity escape velocity' by 2029 .

The controversial idea has long stirred debate in tech and scientific circles, with gerontologists and longevity experts warning that the science is not yet close to achieving such a feat.

Kurzweil predicts a tipping point in the near future when medical progress starts to outpace aging in small, accumulating ways.

If his timeline holds true, the early 2030s could mark the beginning of a very different relationship with aging, one in which dying of old age is no longer an assumed endpoint.
