RE: Would You Upload Your Consciousness To A Virtual Reality To Be Immortal?

in #technology7 years ago

@sauravrungta It is a hell of a thought. Not sure I would won't to be uploaded into a cloud so to speak.
I would probably go for more of a reality based on the Altered Carbon type of tech... obviously not allowing the world to be so horrible, but being backed up essentially, allowing us to be placed into new cloned bodies or I guess a synthetic equivalent. Would be a hell of a technical leap to behold.
I wonder if a mind freed from its mortal body would still be constrained by mental limits or whether it could expand beyond, for lack of a better concept, it's 'programming'. Interesting thought right there, one mind with limitless potential could be beautiful or would it be a horror to behold, I guess it depends on the person, though once the gloves are off is it really still that person.

That is a very interesting question. A consciousness free from the bounds of a physical body, in my opinion, would be devoid of all humanly desires and could, as you say, expand beyond the programming.
