This was a counter argument againts the spotify founders new startup Neko. It is a huge multi-scanner that collects several hundreds of data points from the human body. Then it crunches and tries to find signals among the noise. The idea is that billionaires and millionaires scan themselves every month, to pick up early signals and to get treatment in time. One doctor criticized it because it could lead to a lot of false alarms, that ends up swamping the healthcare system for nothing. I find it funny that in every era, once you hit a certain level of power, it seems the dream of immortality keeps coming back. Chinese emeperors did it, and our dear billionaires are now doing it to.
