Just got bill at our house for a small bag of those engineered antibodies for a cool $90,000 US. Things get more interesting when it is $900. Technology does move that fast, e.g. this GPU comparison w.r.t. ray tracing.

Death is already *mostly* voluntary. Anyone can commit suicide any time they want. That the overwhelming majority of us *choose* not to is important. The particular alternatives we continually choose to engage define us. Would you rather ingest engineered cells? Or perhaps (as I did) engineered antibodies? I've long thought that the Singularity is metaphysical hooha; and generalized AI will arise through a merging of wet- with hard-ware ... chip in the brain before brain in the laptop, an evolution not a revolution. So, programmatically controllable cells just seems like a natural step along the way ... much like the spittle bug's kidney and the built environments we all find surrounding us.
