I think immortality might be achieved threw a combination of genetic engineering and nanotechnology as well as AI.
First, it should be noted that human beings are not immortal. The human body is made up of biological cells which can die and reproduce as required by the body's needs. This life cycle will continue until the death of a cell or organism, including man.
When a human dies, the cells in their body begin to die and eventually decompose. Once the entire organism has decomposed it cannot be brought back to life.
This is not the case with an immortal organism, which would be able to reproduce cells and live forever. An organism that is biologically immortal must be able to replace dead or dying biological cells.
This is where the combination of genetic engineering and nanotechnology comes into play. A genetically modified organism would be able to replace dead or dying cells with new, living ones. This technique has already been used in some organisms, including humans.
As far as nanotechnology goes, it can already be used to repair and replace damaged cells. Nanobots have been created which can enter the human body and fix any damage done to tissue. These nanobots would also act as a replacement for dying or dead cells.
An immortal organism would also be able to use technology in order to replicate its cells. This could be done by downloading the genetic information of an individual and programming a computer to create new, living cells. Even if the human body was destroyed completely, it could still live on in another form.
