Meaning you cannot distinguish it from an immoral future. So lifespan is very much coupled to morality.
Note that many elderly adults will say things like they “don’t believe” in climate change or “don’t believe” in artificial intelligence or electric cars. For them this is a pretty reliable and accurate future prediction, they do not anticipate being alive to see their belief be falsified.
There are other issues—the less lifespan you have remaining, the more beneficial riskier technology like rapid AI advancements would have to you, and the less cost there is.
So the fact is, morality and lifespan are coupled and this is true for all living humans, not just the subset here.
“most here ‘just’ want to be immortal no matter the cost and don’t really care about morality otherwise.”
Well, a moral future you are not alive to observe doesn’t pay rent. https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/a7n8GdKiAZRX86T5A/making-beliefs-pay-rent-in-anticipated-experiences
