The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at https://www.mediafire.com/two

If you can have 1 clone, why not 100 clones? Are all 100 plus 1 you?

Spoiler! Philosopher Derek Parfit is convincing that you are not your memories and that a virtual reality "person" (or a biological clone) with a copy of all your memories is not you.

Derek Parfit on Personal Identity:

Derek Parfit, who died at age 74, was not the most famous philosopher in the world. But he was among the most brilliant, and his papers and books have had a profound, incalculably vast impact on the study of moral philosophy over the past half century.

His work did not dwell on topics of merely academic interest. He wrote about big topics that trouble everyone, philosopher and layperson alike: Who am I? What makes me “me”?

From your post above:

"My premise?

"we can't even get an AI-driven car that doesn't kill its passengers"

That AI drivers kill people? STILL TRUE!

"On average, there are 9.1 self-driving car accidents per million miles driven, while the same rate is 4.1 crashes per million miles for regular vehicles."

That the average AI driver has more accidents than the average human driver? STILL TRUE! "

Maybe someday you'll quit f*cking around being a worthless speed bump on this forum - not this day.

Good riddens. It's heartwarming that even in 2021 I can find at least one thing I can agree with a couple of retards like you on.

The first draft of anything is shit. :)

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

Maybe some day you'll quit lying about what other people post when everybody can clearly see that you're lying!

But today is not that day.
