Once your mind is in software, you can make backup copies and program replacement robots as better versions become available. You don't even need cryonics. There is enough personal information about you on your phone and in your email, messages, and social media accounts to program a LLM to convince everyone that it's you. It doesn't matter if some memories are missing or made up because you won't notice. By next year you will forget 90% of what happened yesterday, yet this doesn't bother you. It will be even easier in 100 years when everyone that knows you today is dead. The big obstacle to uploading is convincing people that their consciousness will be transferred to the silicon version of you when the carbon version is destroyed. But that objection will go away once you see others wake up in their new bodies, younger, stronger, and smarter, with super powers like infrared vision and built in GPS and WiFi. Since consciousness is an illusion not taken seriously by AI developers, it's just a matter of programming your copy to claim to have feelings. That just means having the LLM predict your actions and carry them out in real time. Of course once we start doing this, carbon based humans will quickly become extinct and nobody will care. ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T772759d8ceb4b92c-M2d0ebc29c29f32700a24feb4 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
