If you could have any superpower, which one would you choose?

I hear it's like locked in our genes cause we evolved from sharks or something so potentially you could get a new one every time it falls off.

The ability to know anything that has ever known by anyone. I'd rewrite long-lost texts, translate dead languages, and settle old historical disputes.

To hell with messiah garbage; I'm just sick of people needlessly suffering. If the messiahs or their overlord were worth a damn things wouldn't be the way they are anyway. Besides I realize it would be a largely thankless and unending task but it would be the most ideal and useful life I can imagine, to actually make people truly better in ways that medicine can't come close to touching yet.

Yeah and let humanity become lazy in the process.

We're already quite lazy; anyway I don't see how cancer, spinal cord damage, missing limbs, the need for replacement organs, and on and on actively encourage people to not be lazy. Wanting people to live happily and to their full potential may sound altruistic but it's better than wishing for something just good for myself.

Its actually the opposite. People will become more lazy than now.

You know that saying "too much of a good thing is bad"? That's what I'm suggesting.

Doctors will quit being doctors.
Surgeons will stop everything.
Medicine won't be manufactured anymore.

Unless there's a catch with infinite healing power.

Alternatively, become the most successful TMZ editor ever.

Like you, I'd pick teleportation. Not only would it make travelling far easier but I get very anxious in a lot of situations about things I say or do and a lot of the time I just want to not be at that place. The ability to just teleport far away from people to a place I can be alone would be nice.

I would probably choose either the ability to become invisible at will, or flight/noclipping, leaning more toward the latter. I dream a lot about those and they seem pretty fun.

Um, one person wouldn't be able to obliterate the need for medicine. That person would probably have to just settle for going around doing things that can't already be done. And besides it's not like I'd live forever or anything. I think you're vastly overestimating the effectiveness of a single person on a worldwide population of billions.
