😩 is this gonna turn into a philosophical debate

It might

Its like reverse abortion

When does a human stop being a human and become a lump of cells?

Is a decaying corpse human?

Is an ash pile human?

What about those tree coffins where they plants a sapling that uses your body as nutrients

I would even go as far as to say that your body isnt you, it's your property for sure. But the same way as a tool would be a part of you

It's a tool for your consciousness to use to do things

Id say a human is the combination of the consiousness and body

Body doesnt need to be organic mind you

A consciousness and a ability to impact the world you also could say

Yes

A consciousness uploaded to a computer wouldnt be human

But a consciousness uploaded to a humanoid android body could be

But an empty android wouldnt be

Does android mean any biological parts?

No

Cyborgs is biological

Okay so what's the difference between the computer and the android

The computer is virtual only

You have tools to impact the world

At least if you can interact

No way to tangibly move and interact

The consiousness needs to be anchored to a moving physical form

If it can inhabit multiple bodies at once then its not human

Well for me it can't because it wouldnt be the same person anymore at that point

If there exists more than one instance of the consiousness it becomes a clone, not a human

Yes exactly

But that is the same for androids

One apprehension i would have about being put in an android body would be the disconnect of consiouseness

If you arent conscious during the switch, did you really survive? Or are you now a copy?

Id argue the only way to do it would be to move the consiousness over slowly, moving the sight over first, then the hearing, all while the main consciousness still remains anchored to the physical form, then move the person over segnent by segment

Even then though itd be hard to gauge whether it worked

If you could guarantee that the organic instance of the consciousness was transferred over, and not copied, then id still call that android human

I realise i rambled there

Gomenasorry

I have killed the convo, much like the government will kill me for my organs

nah i was just waking up and shit

the slowly moving of the consciousness is a intersting point
