Once you get comfortable, we'll yank out millions in quick succession. I'll take durability over semi-solipsistic fears any day. | |
| Apr 29, 2016 at 16:32 | comment | added | Stephen Voris | Slight problem with this approach - replacing one neuron a day is far too slow. To fit the incremental approach within a modern human lifespan, on average roughly three million neurons a day or so will need replacement. There's also going to be the semi-solipsistic fear that all the people who've gone through the operations successfully are merely programmed to say they're still conscious. Philosophical zombies are starting to look rather less hypothetical these days... | |
