That's the funniest thing about this, the techbros think people will care to bring them to life in the future.

I'm not sure I like these comments. Under the presumption that an uploaded consioness is even possible that's still a sapient individual I don't really think you can possibly do something to deserve eternal torment like some of these comments seem so gleeful about.
Consciousness is a process, not just data. If they copy the weights of your brain neurons, they would be able to create new life that thinks like you, but is NOT you. Although that new life would be very confused and would honestly believe that it is you.
Thus, it's neither eternal life nor eternal torment. Maybe torment of newly created AIs, but we didn't come to "AI have rights" yet.
I have a super weird view of selfhood I think. I know that the uploaded existence wouldn't be me but I also don't care if that makes sense. If you've ever watched pantheon I would totally upload myself even if it killed me so that the uploaded me could exist.

It wouldn't be eternal. Most kids don't have that kind of attention span.
Plus, these consciousnesses might be carefully protected the way major corporations have protected my SSN. So maybe the billionaires have nothing to worry about...
