If were made of anti mass, would I accelerate away from the earth at 9.81 m/s^2 due to anti gravity?

It depends on whether inertial mass is the same as gravitational mass, if you are into such mental onanism.

Do you mean anti-matter or negative mass?

Anti-matter still has normal mass, so no, you would be attracted to the Earth.

Negative Mass, yes, you would accelerate away from the Earth.

It's not experimentally verified, though. But in that case there would be a CP violation, and we'd have to call the feds.

The fuck are you talking about? Positron was experimentally verified in 1932, anti-proton in 55. And why would it be a CPT violation? Anything which can have Parity symmetry must have a Mass, becuase if it travels at c it cannot change Parity.

It's interaction with gravity. I realize it would be extremely unlikely that antimatter has negative gravitational mass, and there were a couple experiments like https://cds.cern.ch/record/1544916/files/ncomms2787.pdf to confirm it's positive, but as I understand the people doing this aren't entirely satisfied with the results just yet.
