RE: Making a Mindclone of ourselves, is Steemit paving the way for Transcendence?
Thank you for sharing this nice nerdy side. Cloning your mind is indeed a fascinating idea and I'm curious when Elon Musk gonna jump on it!
I also like your take about writing. Back in the days people wrote long letters, carefully drafted their words and opinions and in certain ways documented time historic events. Today we can read these old letters and gain a grasp of how people lived back then. It's like a time portal. Steemit has the potential to grow into such a portal too, documenting good ideas, inspiring visions and philosophical discussions for millennials.
The next big step is how to conserve bit and bites for a time without energy. For a time when humanity goes through a dark age and the Internet will be offline. How can we preserve our knowledge for eternity? What if we could save knowledge into DNA?
I really like your idea of saving knowledge into DNA. I believe this was implied in the film Transcendence. Conserving information without energy seems like a matter of which actor you view it from. There's always some 'work' involved when 'writing' or 'reading' from any medium. Does that not require time and energy ?
