Would You Upload Your Mind If It Meant Living Forever?
So imagine this: technology has advanced to the point where you can upload your entire consciousness into a digital world. You’d basically get to live forever no aging, no sickness, no physical limitations. You could reset your body, travel instantly, even live in different “worlds” depending on your mood.

But here’s the catch: once your mind is uploaded, your physical body is gone for good. Some argue it’s not really you anymore, just a copy. Others say that if it thinks, feels, and remembers like you it is you.

Would you do it? Or would you rather take the natural path, even if it means accepting death?

Definite NO. One lifetime is enough.

Even if this was possible, just because something thinks it's you, doesn't mean it is you.

Of course not. What is someone uploads 5 petabytes of e621 art into my brain?

Actually, yeah, I would.

Hard to say, I really don't know if I'd want to live forever. I'm fine with 50 more years.

I can't imagine a worse fate than immortality.

No.

There is a reason I have a lifespan. I have no intention of denying myself the chance to hopefully find out what happens after I pass away.
TV Series Upload comes to mind here...

No... I see the world's devolution of humans and others can't even learn from their history or own mistakes, doomed to suffer in an endless cycle of repeating past failures. Special country leaders. I go as far as to predict their stupidity. I don't need to live forever, as it becomes a butterfly effect of just trying to warn them, but they go and do it anyways.

Depends what the digital world is. Saying it's a world and saying there's different worlds doesn't really say anything about these worlds. Are they worlds of my own creation? Are they other's creations? Are there other minds in those worlds with me? Am I alone? Do I have privacy in these digital worlds?

I gotta know more about all the details.

Regardless what the details are, you won't be able to live forever. Just because you're in a digital world doesn't mean you can't be shut down and cease to exist. Many things could happen to cause that. And one of them will most definitely happen at some point in the future.

It wouldn't be me. It would be a copy of me; my engrams and neurology now emulated by volatile/non-volatile memory and circuitry.

It would be an AI with me as its basis, and I would STRONGLY recommend someone else. I have already decided I overall distrust the rest of humanity, and making me immortal would result in you basically creating the 'anti-christ'. Just wait a bit like Alka-Seltzer.

Why would I condemn myself to such hell?
