if your mind clones are edited to not mind being shut down, then is ethically fine to shut them down? it wouldn't violate their preference and also it would make it clear to you that you're not a mind clone. but still feels icky. and are you indistinguishable from a mind clone when you're not actively reflecting on your desire not to die? how similar can a mind clone be while having such a core value altered?

Cool! Thanks for the update!

I also think upload is probably fine.

But also, while not an expert, I don't think I'd put most of my probaiblity mass on "it's physically impossible to 'unfix' a brain / return a protein to their original state".

probability of reverting biological viability of fixated brain seems plausibly higher to me than reverting structural integrity (connectome mapping) of traditional cryonics 🤷‍♂️ I'm still signed up with Alcor atm, but I'd rather vitrifixation

Maybe you would need a trust in between?

But yeah, good point, it might explain (more) why it didn't blow up.

should make it easier to convince, no? this system is more likely to mean the donation is tax deductible which is good

ah, yeah, that's what I was referring to with:

At some point this incentive mechanism would stop working because a party receiving 0 vs a party receiving non-zero would benefit more from having money at the margin.

I'm not sure I'm seeing how "most ads aren’t for getting people to switch sides" means "$10m of ads for one party and $8m in ads for the other is not equivalent to $2m in just one"

Amazing, thank you! I'll share with the founder I know
