Hey, if they can 100% without a doubt prove that they can transfer my consciousness over when teleporting with no issues, then hell yeah, why not. I just don’t believe it will be possible

Well to answer the computer thing, yeah I’d wanna be uploaded, although that was never part of the original discussion. I’m not gonna upload my consciousness every time I teleport. And my point is that I don’t believe our consciousness will transfer over, which is why I don’t trust teleporters.

I must not be being clear. You wouldn’t wake up. It’s like suddenly generating a twin with all your memories and feelings. You suddenly don’t take over the body of your twin. You die, your twin lives on, your consciousness and existence is over, but your twin takes your place

It’ll be another you, not you. To your friends and family, nothing has changed, but you don’t get to see what happens

I’ll never trust a teleporter. I think our original form will die, and then be recreated elsewhere, but our string of consciousness will not continue, even if our copy says it does

I’m sure 100 years ago, the idea of someone walking on the moon was just as crazy, so who knows what the future will bring
