“I don’t think we should try to have people live for a really long time,” Musk
recently told Insider. “It would cause asphyxiation of society because the truth
is, most people don’t change their mind. They just die. So if they don’t die, we
will be stuck with old ideas and society wouldn’t advance.” >
Maybe not?

I do think there is plenty of room for individual growth/transformation
in one lifetime and perhaps Psi research will (continue to) provide
yet-more tools for facilitating that.
It isn't clear to me that merely loosening up neural pathways so that they can be re-created yields healthy growth as such. I'd like to think it can be, but as the neo-luddite that I tend toward, I can't help but seeing the myriad ways it can go wrong as well. This negative ideation is probably a self-referential example of the topic itself.
Following RECs original subject: I'm interested I suppose in understanding more-better the myriad scales and dimensions of adaptivity of "Life Itself", with the human (individual as well as cultural) experience being the one most relevant to my own life, but not exclusively.
