So AMPK/Sirt1 likely promote each other's activation (which is why teasing out MOA, determining true cause and effect can be hard)

Further complicating things is timing, duration, dosing, etc. ie in this paper chronic metformin increases murine Sirt1 https://t.co/30vioi25ZF 8/ pic.twitter.com/rufhVQMSXp

Regardless whether you put #aging out of your mind or not you're going to continue to age until it becomes a problem. Instead of putting it out of your mind until the problem's at your doorstep why not try to reverse it? Indeed biogerontology & biomedical gerontology are on it.
