The Future of Intelligence

An argument between two scientists ,one of them wanting to alter ageing in humans ,and generating life into a controlled environment:
A* well, that was in 2000 wasn’t it? But they could not see this happening …it was debated, but legalized in 2004. But this is outrageous.
C* I haven’t slept for the last 89 hours…and I don’t feel numb…
A* But how long will it go on ? Will there be any more children ? Would any one want them? Will it end? People may live but will the earth live as long as them….?
C* That is true…the people will live as long as they desire. They will die only when they wish to ,by damaging their own organs and not replacing or implanting newly made ones into themselves . Children will come only when anyone wants them. The idea of marriage will be lost as any person will be able to create for himself , what I would call a ‘sex object’ which could be a person of desired characteristics based on the desire of the user. the user will then be able to program his own psyche to develop varied sexual interest after introspective moments where he studies his requirements and selects his mood. He will be able to accelerate the growth of this object to feed his hunger
If he does change this desire , his earlier sexual interests will be wiped out of his memory ,thus rejuvenating him and urging him to carry on . this would cause a large portion of people to become anti-social and they will draw into reticence . But then , they will be those who will program their minds to make them want to convince people that they should live in harmony and coexist together. They will form societies preaching the lack of communication amongst each other. These societies will have leaders who will play the same role that the pope did in 2000 ,when dolly was cloned . Thus, at the organisational level , life on eath will be same as what it was in 2000 ,or for that matter in any age you wish to consider .
A* But then , what reason will people have to live ? What purpose will they define ?
C* You cannot imagine this society with same intent as that which was there in earlier years. People will bear relatively same feeling but will have different...
