Two things in my mind make personal identity fuzzy:
1. The MWI of quantum mechanics, which if true means each person
experiences a perhaps infinite number of histories across the multi-
verse. Should personal identity extend to just one branch or to all
branches? If all branches where do you

Person identity is useful when talking about everyday situations, but
I think it muddies things, especially if one tries to bind a
continuous conscious experience with a person.
That's true. It's rather like comparing familiar classical mechanics
Hi,
What they did was hook X million simple neural soma models to each other
with Y000 models of synaptic interconnects. Very useful for investigating
large-scale dynamicsbutthe leap to 'mouse brain'?.presumptuous
I think. Perhaps... 'Mouse-brain scale idealised connectionist model'
