I agree with this, in the sense that this follows also from computationalism, and thus
3p-duplicability at some level.
An 1p-experience is not duplicable, as it is the unique experience of a unique being.
It can still be duplicated relatively to some observer, but not relatively to the
experiencer himself. Again what you say concur with comp, making astonishing why you
are using those points against the possibility of 3p-duplication, which is so much
well illustrated by nature, as life is constant self-body change and duplication (as
Stathis argues convincingly).
To sum up: with comp, we are 3p-duplicable; the 1p, as attributed by a 3p-person, is
relatively duplicable. The 1p, seen from the 1p view, is not duplicable. Like in
Everett QM, the 1p can't feel the split in any way.
That seems to imply that the 1p view is nothing but a stream of experiences and apart
from that sequence of experiences there is no 'person'.
Not at all. Both the "Bp & p", and the UDA-personal-diary definitions relates the first
person to a machine in a position of having those experiences, locally.
Globally, we might become the same person, and differ only locally by our local
experiences, but they still indiduate us relatively to others locally, and so there are
locally genuine different persons.
There is not only sequence of experiences, but plausible universal bodies and context
which relates those experiences, through their self-referential logical and arithmetical
(computational) relations.
Aren't those relations the ones provided by physics - continuity of bodies, etc. So are
you agreeing with my idea that a physical world in necessary for conscious beings to exist IN.
