When You Choose to "Go Robot"
If you, as a human, decide to change your body over to a simulated human using robotic parts,
what changes would you choose to make?
Would you keep your forgetful memory that leaves you without remembering where you left
the keys?
Feel like 28 years old. Retain the experience of your current age.
Would you like to forget the divorce and pain it caused?
Would a person buy long term health care insurance at about $2400 per month that could be
used alternatively for transferring one's person into a robotic unit? The state of the robotic
technology at that time would be part of the decision.
Were you to choose to act like a younger person, you could hold a job and make money in
order to pay for your robotic being. Would that classify as indentured servitude?
Would convincing a person to undergo this procedure be equivalent to getting them to join a
cult?
If my friend has been transformed into a robot, do I trust his judgement as being the same as
when he was a human? After all, he now a robot and will identify with type five life.
Could I have my wife cloned into a robot which would be just like her but sober?
If I were to make a robot who looked and acted identically to Marilyn Monroe, would I be
violating an inherent patent or copyright of Marilyn?
How many changes would I have to make? Would the person have to be living?
What if my representation of Abe Lincoln were stolen by someone and he had such a clone
living next door to me. Could I sue him for theft? Can I own my robot personality? Could the
robot personality own itself? Could it go to court and demand the demolition of the neighbor's
clone of Abe Lincoln?
Is there another country you would like to live in but you don't because you don't know the
language? Would you choose to install that language in your brain if it only cost $10,000?
What would you be willing to pay to be able to speak 25 of the most common languages?
Would you travel more?
They say that if you practice anything enough
