No, I haven't seen the original - but it is a decent storyline and yeah, it is getting closer. What I do think though, is that while the physical version might be a while away, the digital version through virtual and augmented reality, might not bee too far off. Even now, people are often unable to tell if they are chatting with a bot and reading articles in the news that are all AI.
I have a feeling that if we upgrade, we will focus on the wrong things and upgrade poorly. Look at all the money spent on cosmetic surgery.
True that. I honestly hope it takes a little longer before the physical becomes undistinguishable from 'reality', although dinos would be cool ;<)
Most upgrades seem to lead to things clogging up and slowing down, performing worse. I guess the same happens to people ;<)
