How far off are we on mind uploading? How much longer do I have to wait before I will be stored indefinitely inside of a computer /sci/?

>> No.6566486

A simple mind as yours can be simulated perfectly fine already. We have chatbots exhibiting higher intelligence than you. For a mind as complex as mine it'll take much longer of course.

Long ways off.

It won't work for cheating death though.

Really, really long. Mind uploading is so far off right now I'm not sure we can even meaningfully talk about it. The processing power isn't there, we don't understand the brain nearly well enough to simulate it, and we don't have the technology to scan a human brain at the relevant level of detail at all - and we're not even sure what the relevant details are.

13% and 374 years. Any other questions?

it wouldn't make you immortal. your mind is still the squishy lump between your ears. If you simulated it on a computer it would not be you. it would be a computer clone of you.

If you killed me the moment my mind got uploaded I wouldnt even know.

>> No.6567222

>>6567217
Yes you would, your clone would think it was you, so basically would be you, but your original consciousness would have passed.

>> No.6567225

>>6567217
If I killed you and didn't upload you you wouldn't know either. You also wouldn't know if I uploaded your mind without killing you. So whether your mind is uploaded to computer or not is completely irrelevant to you.

One could still argue as to whether the copy was "you", especially seeing as we can a imagine an alternate timeline, where the original brain was kept intact.

>> No.6567229

>>6567222
Logically you would have to bring your consiousness piece by piece into the new computer substrate to avoid destructive uploading. Or put neural interface into your brain and over tiem transfer the activity into the machine.

I wish these threads would fucking go away.

He's not that far off, OP. The shit you've been reading on popsci is essentially this. They're beginning to make an A.I. that replicates your consciousness. And not in a Data from Star Trek sort of way... But more of a shitty chat-bot who mirrors your behavioral outputs given certain inputs.

We all do. It's really depressing to see what is essentially a religion masquerading as real science.
