Since then, I’ve thought a lot about death and how it impacts us all, for better or worse,” said Swisher. “When I started covering Silicon Valley in the early 1990s, I spent a lot of time reporting on how innovation and tech leaders could help some people while hurting others. As titans who have profoundly impacted our world, they’ve become interested in applying their vast fortunes and often god-like know-how to longevity, dreaming they might even be able to hack death itself. Can they? Is that a good thing?
