[22:26:36] Lord Mortulus: Klov, I want to sleep
[22:26:43] Lord Mortulus: it's time to go to bed, I have to work tomorrow
[22:27:05] Imaris: if you were converted into a digital form, you could create a body for yourself that doesn't need sleep, and then upload your personality into it.
[22:27:25] Lord Mortulus: that wouldn't be me, it would be a clone
[22:27:31] Lord Mortulus: I repeat this again
A person who has been cloned – no matter how – will still consider themselves to be the original. For the original, the clone is just a clone, but for the clone, it is the original. After all, it has its own memory, its own life. Despite the fact that it was just created, it feels as if it has lived for many years.
Therefore, I believe that excuses like "it won't be me, it will be a clone" are meaningless. In reality, there will be two people, not one, if, of course, the first one remains alive (we are considering a situation with ordinary, "living" human cloning). Each of them will truly be independent. Now, let's imagine that a person is "digitalized," and the next day, they somehow die. Their copy is transferred back to reality and placed in a body. The copy will not even know that the original has died, if it is not told, because the memory remains the same – up to the moment of the person's death. And this clone will not differ in any way from the person who lived before; it will think the same way, have the same memory, the same character, everything will be the same. Therefore, the phrase "it's not the same person anymore, it's a clone," although true, will not carry much meaning, because the person has remained the same.

I definitely won't start any flame wars, but Mortulus is already going to sleep, and then he'll work all day, so we have almost 24 hours >:3
By the way, he can bring any topic to the question of immortality, so don't worry and join the discussion.
I started another topic on the previous page that has some common features with yours, but no one wanted to discuss it.

Come on, Freud, I'm interested in your opinion.
