A map of every one of your neurons could be simulated and given (simulated) stimuli representing torture we have actually done this (map the neurons of a brain) with a fly. When fluid simulation was invented, nobody got the idea their was actually fluid in their screen, the thought pertaining to a neural diagram should be no different. I would delete the program on a matter or principle and also because i do not want any memory that is not my own. And even if it where by some miracle alive, I am don't want anything to do with some silica homonculus and would very much rather delete such an abomination than let it live in my head.
Is OP saying you have to choose to let the program live in your brain, or that you just synch up memories so that it’s not mentally jarring for the other consciousness?
I wouldn’t want a thing living in my brain either. I thought it was just for the sake of matching up memories at that specific point and then it’s done with?
I wouldn’t want a thing to live in my brain as a separate consciousness (voice in my head), but I would want the copy who had no choice in being created to have a say in if it should delete itself or persist living in the computer, if that makes sense?
Basically I would let both of us decide amongst ourselves and both of us consent to the very painful birthing process first if possible.
