Hello, /x/
It's been a long time since I've been here. Last I was here was probably in 2011. I missed those creepy nights in my old farm house reading creepypastas with the lights out.
Anyway, I've a topic for all of you here. I'm not sure where else to post this but it's something I enjoy discussing among friends.
It's about perspective, what makes you - you?
If technology ever reaches a point where the human body and mind can be 100% augmented, your memories reprogrammed into your brain, including physical mannerisms and your speech patterns, are you still really you?
At that point, when your mind and body is replaced 100% with machinery and electronics, what kind of conscious would that be? It's no longer organic. No longer human, technically. So is the real you now dead, and replaced by a machine, or is it our memories and thoughts that we created in our life that makes us who we are?
Say you do this, and from someone else's perspective of you, they don't notice any difference(They never knew you became a machine). The only people knowing this are you and the technicians doing this to you.
So with everyone's consensus that you are still you, and you are still creating memories, is it others' perspectives that therefore make you who you are, and not you being what you think you are?
