Sam Altman invested $180 million into Retro Biosciences

Retro Bio going for an autophagy enhancer seems sensible to me. Whether stimulating SOX2 could go too far is, however, a question that only experimentation will answer.

If a company like LLY has moderate success that still means there’s not a conversation or endpoint of immortality, i.e LEV. I’m not complaining, but it might be better to be upfront about it now rather than have a focus group message of “extending healthy lifespan by 10 years” when investors and others likely are expecting more than that. It’s the elephant in the room, but it also might be more effective if LEV is the goal.
