I'm watching episode 1 of Upload (2020). It's fun, I'm enjoying both the story and the world-building. But once thing I can't ignore is how much I don't buy the fundamental premise.
A few years ago I read a philosophy essay, which pointed out that a digital clone of a person would be just that, a clone. You wouldn't expect to look out of a biological clone's eyes, or to keep living through it if your own body died. So why would we expect that of a digital clone?
