You die. They scan and upload your brain to the fancy simulation in the sky. Would your experience be a continual you - as in you die and wake up in a new digital environment - or does your experience end, and the thing in the fancy simulation is a new thing entirely?

Continual for all intents and purposes / discrete in the same way that sleeping breaks continuity, or that the present self is different even from moment to moment

The simulation experiences it as continuous. I still die. Fun fact: this same thing basically happens every time you go to sleep.

I die. But the thing in the sky would be totally convinced that it’s me, and always has been

you're already the thing in the sky and the thing in the sky? It isn't.

God, I spent too long on the Optimalverse forums for this. Everybody should just read this fic and go home.

Yeah, that was a fun read for me. If you could toggle a few switches in your brain and be happy/fulfilled, or take drugs the rest of your life to achieve a less optimal effect, which would you choose?

I die. But the new me in the fancy simulation would experience it as a continual me.
