Some scientistsare working on a technology like this and I'm not sure if its a good or a terrible idea. I found this concept in those videos:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GoJsr4IwCm4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C25qzDhGLx8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjdpR-TY6QU&t=11s

This is a great, deep question. IMO it depends. Are you religious? Do you believe there is life after death? If yes, then Immortality is something that is difficult to believe. If you fear there is nothing after life, we die and forgotten, then immortality is a must and would be heaven. But for the sake of argument, let's say we achieved immortality. After so many years (1000 years), wouldn't we get bored of everything? Sex, Money, drinking, whatever your cup may be! Also, this would call for population controller. Meaning only the richest of the rich would be able to have kids, and keep the immortality. Perhaps like the movie "TIME". This questions calls for another topic? :D
