X-Message-Number: 436 From att!compuserve.com!73647.1215 Wed Sep 11 02:15:47 EDT 1991 From: Thomas Donaldson <> To: <whscad1!> Subject: Re: cryonics #421 - Re: Nano-neurons You're discussing simulation. There's a distinction: we can expect a simulation would take a lot of computer power, solely to create an entity which works the same as that which it simulates. I've always thought of uploading as an attempt to create an improvement or upgrade. AS anyone who knows my opinions will know, I think either or both of these have very great problems with implementation, so great that their worth may be impugned on that ground alone. But we shall have to see how it all turns out. Thomas Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=436
