“When is a mind me?” by Rob Bensinger

  • Resumen

  • xlr8harder writes:

    In general I don’t think an uploaded mind is you, but rather a copy. But one thought experiment makes me question this. A Ship of Theseus concept where individual neurons are replaced one at a time with a nanotechnological functional equivalent.

    Are you still you?

    Presumably the question xlr8harder cares about here isn't semantic question of how linguistic communities use the word "you", or predictions about how whole-brain emulation tech might change the way we use pronouns.

    Rather, I assume xlr8harder cares about more substantive questions like:

    1. If I expect to be uploaded tomorrow, should I care about the upload in the same ways (and to the same degree) that I care about my future biological self?
    2. Should I anticipate experiencing what my upload experiences?
    3. If the scanning and uploading process requires destroying my biological brain, should I say yes to the procedure?
    My answers:

    1. The original text contained 1 footnote which was omitted from this narration.

      The original text contained 7 images which were described by AI.
