Will a computer really be able to have my consciousness running in it when they aren't even able to emulate PS2 games without glitches?

Probably not, but it's a fun thought experiment, anyway. My guess is that the technology is not going to be there anytime soon.

Quoted By:

A computer can interact with a brain and a brain can interact with consciousness. It can also fix minor perception bugs, so as long as the game isn't completely broken, a brain should be able to make it realistic.

We don't? Calm the fuck down and die when it's your time, like everybody before you. You aren't special.

Wouldn't it be just a clone of your consciousness? What would gain from it?

This is the weirdest objection to immortality. Humans lived in poverty for most of history relative to us, but I still get to use the internet and have heart surgery even if I'm not "special".

Our brain constantly changes its structure, yet our consciousness remains. If we learn how the brain maintains it and move it from the brain into a better brain, it should remain too.

No, it'll be a copy, regardless of the fidelity

Immortality tech is never going to be for plebs though.
At best, musk/bezos/gates/chinese billionaires/schwab/rothschilds/etc will live forever. Your descendants will be among the teeming masses of UBI poverty metaverse cattle from which they select attractive specimens to torture, rape and eventually eat.

Joke's on you, I sterilized myself. I'll live as long as I can. Either the future is nice and I can use IVG or some other sci-fi technology to reproduce or the future is the dytopia you describe, in which case I will allow my line to end and save us the suffering.

I mean your argument. Isn't it simplistic?
