Virtually Human

If you’re active on Twitter or Facebook, share photos through Instagram,

or blogging regularly, you’re already on your way to creating a Mindfile --

a digital database of your thoughts, memories, feelings, and opinions that is essentially a back-up copy of your mind.

 Soon, this Mindfile can be made conscious with special software,

 Mindware,

that mimics the way human brains organize information, create emotions and achieve self-awareness. This may sound like science-fiction, but the nascent technology already exists. 

The key to immortality is not preserving the body, but

downloading one's brain.

Martine Rothblatt examines the future of mindclones and the ethical issues that will arise.

I probably won't live to see this, but I believe it is not far off that we will exist after our bodies have died.

Mind blowing!!!!
