The question of whether we'll be uploading our consciousness to a computer is no longer if. It's probably when. That's because these digital consciousnesses – our essences – will likely be the product of an AI's interpretation of ourselves. The breadcrumbs we'll leave across digital files, images, videos, audio recordings, and, of course, all that social media will be an ample resource to reconstruct you.

Honestly most of my posts about these subjects are exactly that: education, information and exposing things for what they are. My history says as much, particularly on companies and advertising.

Maybe I should have phrased it different: everything was there that should have informed them. This was so damn obvious and people had been alerted for years. It wasn't some mystery.

I am saying things to this audience different then I would to others of course.

Their is no supiorority, no higher intelligence, no autism, just common sense. These things were all around us then: don't give out personal information, remain annonymous on the internet, corporations are evil. Pretty much the basics.

Are people morons? Lately I really so feel that way. You can show facts, compassion, try to help, and they still do the dumbest things.
