Part of why I don't see the appeal, even if it were possible, of uploading your "consciousness" whatever that is, to extend "life." It's not you, and you're still dead.
- teekert 5y agoThe pattern that is "the other" you will argue otherwise.

- User23 5y agoDigital metempsychosis is an interesting religious belief. From an anthropological perspective I find it fascinating how the same old ideas get reimagined as technology changes. Feels like how the Sidhe got replaced by the Greys in the abduction racket, and so on.
- Aperocky 5y agoNo, that's not what it is. Most successful migration in tech requires a time where both old and new system are running concurrently. In terms of brain, this treat consciousness as software and brain/etc as hardware. whether said software can be modified to run on other hardware, or other hardware can be modified to run said software, is where the key's at. The key to migration is to have a period when the same software is running on both platforms. As a single unit.
