I also think this is the next "evolution" of the human race. Just like the bourgeois replaced the old feudal system, a new group of people (the millionaires or billionaires with connections) will trascend the capitalist system. Most of us will die (90%+), only a tiny selected elite will survive the cataclysm that will come (resource scarcity, nuclear war etc). It will be the last step in human evolution. This is actually a bittersweet ending. The few that will surive will live as ubermenschs for ever in an utopic world, but at the cost of millions dying.

Everyone in this thread should at least be taking NMN, rapamycin, metformin/berberine, a decent multi with extra vitamin D and K2, and be practicing calorie restriction or intermitent fasting. If you aren't, you're not taking you immortality seriously. These won't make you live forever but they'll tack on an extra decade or two which might make all the difference in living to see true immortech emerge.

There is such a thing as arch-typical hallucinations based on the culture and memes of society that the subject resides in. in other words, if everyone understands aliens to be little green men, then everyone who trips on lsd will see little green men as that meme is in their subconscious, same with religious experiences, that's why people from different cultures have such radically different NDEs, they are interpreting their hallucinations in accordance with their cultures beliefs.

The worst part of all this isn't even that these people literally died while a computer pointlessly moves bits around, it's that some billionaire faggot will get hoodwinked into something like this and eventually a computer program without sentience but made to mimic Jeff Bezos' brain will manipulate the stock market to become uber rich because that's all it understands. Imagine how tragic if our future wealth is hoarded by tiny algorithms with no subjective consciousness just playing out instruction sets while the billionaires who made them rot.
Here's how dumb your idea is, imagine a computer instruction set that is finitely bounded, call it X, the instruction set/bits are arranged in the exact pattern as your consciousness before death, do you really believe that when you die as long as the creation of each bit coincides with the termination of one neuron you somehow don't die? The implication is, given that the data set is finite, were you to have your head blown off, but a computer randomly created that instruction set, your consciousness would somehow resume.
Consciousness is clearly intrinsically tied to matter AND pattern.

>> No.16491480

semi-related question.
Why do we age? i know the mechanics e.g. telomeres shortening etc.
But what is the evolutionary purpose of ageing? There are animals like the humpback whale that can live for hundreds of years.. so clearly lifespan is something that can be selected for in natural selection.
But why is it not always a beneficial mutation to live longer? you stay fit longer, stay on your prime longer and can have more offspring.

If you imagine a male lion on the savanna, who happen to have a mutation that increase his lifespan, why would this mutation not be selected for? the odds of him staying as the Alpha male in a pack will increase, as he is fit for more years and can easier defend his territory in those extra years, which in turn will lead to more offspring, whom will also be potential carrier of the mutation.

It is difficult to imagine a scenario where increased lifespan would not be evolutionary beneficial (at least in terms of natural selection, it may be bad for the species as a whole).

i have googled it, and there is various explanations e.g. a trade off where genes that allow for fast maturation also cause decreased lifespan. But i don't think this is a good explanation, and i don't think any of the other explanations given are good either.
I once read a study about fruit-flies where they breed them to live longer (essentially had a bunch of the flies, removed all the eggs so no new flies came about, once the population had dwindled a lot and only a fraction was left, they let the eggs laid mature, rinse and repeat the process until the life-span of the fruit flies had increased by 25%). As i recall it, they noted no difference in fertility rate or maturation in these long-living fruit flies generation.

what you're describing is essentially intermittent fasting which confers the same benefits as steady-state CR.

Again, you don't understand basic physics, just because it's gradual doesn't mean it's transferring your consciousness. One is being destroyed and the other created, lets entertain this thought though. Let us imagine a CPU running 10^100 instructions per cycle, perfectly simulates your consciousness. You destroy your brain one neuron at a time while the CPU 'actives' one digital neuron at a time. If your consciousness was transferred in this way, then it could just as easily be transferred by destroying your whole brain and then turning on the artifical neurons. Your arguing that consciousness is just a pattern, which paradoxically means we all have immortal metaphysical souls and anyone can be resurrected just by running an instruction set that perfectly matches their last conscious thought. The whole thing is retarded to anyone who has studied physics.

so you are anti-gradual-transition because you conflate as being really the same thing as copy-and-destroy, but aren't human brains already replacing cells, neurons, etc gradually over time? If we retain a steady conscious stream and coherent sense of self over the course of years even as parts of our brain are replacing themselves with new parts, then why wouldn't it work to just start inserting immortal silicon neurons in their stead at a certain point? So long as the function of each synthetic cell/neuron part were 1:1 with its biological counterpart, aside from being immortal.

It seems to me like the successful proof-of-concept for gradual brain replacement is already there, going on inside my skull every day.

Unlike most of you morons I am capable of critical thought and have come to the following conclusion. Behold the one truth.

Everything other than the brain are irrelevant and can be replaced without it resulting in a loss of "you". There are already heart/lung machines and whatnot, and if given enough money you could probably keep a brain alive without any other organs either with machines or by taking what it needs from live donors, regardless of morality.

Any shape, way and or form of "immortality" other than organic cell repair and maintenance is the same as you dying.
>Uploading
Would not be "you", would be a copy of you at best, meaning the you reading this would still die. So even though there might be something "practically you" it's not you, you will die.
>Freezing
Does nothing, all it would do is perhaps make it possible for someone in the future to solve the issue and provide you with immortality through organic cell repair/maintenance.
>gene editing
Might do it, would most likely not solve the eventual mutation leading to cancer(fun fact, many people in their 80s/90s have cancer, it is just that treating it isn't worth it because they will die from other causes before the cancer kills them).

The one and only way to achieve immortality is through organic repair/maintenance. You would still die if your brain gets obliterated..

Pretty much you need to solve cancer & stop brain cells from dying off/replace the ones that die. Eventually you might have replaced the entire brain but I theorise that what makes "you" isn't the cells themselves but the electrical/chemical connection between them as a whole, which should be kept even though all cells might be replaced eventually, as long as it is slow and gradual enough.
This is the one and only truth about immortality.

the problem with replacing organic matter that we know "works" with "immortal silicon" is that we have no way of knowing if the immortal silicon results in a loss of "you", and there is no way to find out: the resulting conscience of this procedure might claim to be "you" but there is no way to verify this.
Replacing it with the same organic matter would not result in this distinction as it is already happening(or at least until somewhere in your early twenties, which is when the brain goes into slowly dying mode). The organic matter would result a guarantee of it being "you" as long as it's slow and gradual enough, the silicon has no such guarantee and we have no way of finding out.

uploading your brain wouldnt be you it would be a copy of you, like having a twin brother. the highest chance of immortality is a brain transplant into another body and crispr made stem cells

Neurons don't get replaced, they are fixed, our brain is plastic in the sense that it can recycle pre-existing neural structures. There are some studies suggesting we produce new neurons, but these could be highly specialised task based neurons and we don't have any degree of confidence to know what organisational structures create consciousness. But this is all besides the point, you cannot, using any material model of physics, justify a position that HOW you produce an object has any bearing on the structure of that object. If you can do it gradually there should be absolutely no reason why doing it all at once would be any different, the entire concept violates physicalism on a fundamental level. You are essentially arguing for a metaphysical concept of consciousness. Imagine you transfer your consciousness, ship of theseus style, to this digital computer, then I turn the computer and boot it back up. Will you be dead and a new you took over? If your answer is no, then consciousness is tied to the pattern and not some causal chain of events, which means you can resurrect yourself after death, in fact it means eventually a computer will spontaneously reproduce your consciousness (you could be in such a simulation right now) OR you can argue causality is integral, but then the problem is that at any given micro-second any given CPU is 'cycling' its instruction set, in other words digital consciousness has a refresh rate, it is periodically shutting down and turning back on very very quickly, why would this not essentially be breaking the causal chain and killing you? Ultimately the subjective quality of consciousness is impossible to empirically test, so the computer would absolutely affirm that it is you, but YOU would very much be 'dead'.
