Recently saw Kurzweil speak at TECHBC and have read one of his books. The advancement in life expectancy he is referring to is derived from the advancement of nanobot technologies that will allow us to better address the limitations we have today based on the natural evolution of our DNA. The idea is that as medicine becomes understood by big data, we can remove the trial and error approach that largely drives it today, with tailor made technology solutions to promote and fix our natural biological deficiencies. The pills alone will not prevent death, yet his intent is to remain as healthy as possible while medical technologies evolve to the point where we can promote and maintain long-term health.
Here are a couple interesting Slashdot articles speaking to nanobot technology.
