>Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI and former president of Y Combinator, has confirmed that he is on a waitlist for a highly controversial "mind-uploading" procedure. The service, offered by the Silicon Valley startup Nectome, aims to preserve the human brain in such high detail that its memories and consciousness could one day be digitized and recreated in a computer.
>Altman is one of approximately 25 individuals who have paid a $10,000 refundable deposit to secure a spot for the procedure, which the company’s founders describe as being "100 percent fatal."
>The procedure, known as "aldehyde-stabilized cryopreservation" or "vitrifixation," involves replacing a living patient’s blood flow with a specialized chemical embalming mixture. This mixture effectively turns the brain into a glass-like state, preserving its entire connectome, the complex map of neural connections, at a microscopic level.
>Because the brain must be "fresh" for the preservation to work, the process must be carried out while the patient is still alive, essentially serving as a form of high-tech physician-assisted suicide. Altman has been open about his interest in the technology, stating, "I assume my brain will be uploaded to the cloud."

Unless the government has some crazy hidden technology we aren't any closer to doing this sci fi nonsense than we were in the year 3275 BC. Only a retard would believe this is possible in our lifetime with our current tech Sam is either lying, a complete 80IQ moron or knows something we don't.

We have Neuralink ai that assist brain function and bio computing brains with actual intelligence and room for growth not simulated or preprogrammed
I say we are close already neuralink can map out the brain and bio computing the brain replicates the saved state im guessing is where its going.

go read secret space program information. the tech exists you little naive bitch
>>42246335
You’re assuming Sam has access to the tech or this report isn’t a distraction
>>42246350
Neuralink is darpa tech from the breakaway nazi and lizards

Perfect analogy. It's just the newest cope for tech bros who can't accept the inevitability of death. This (like cryonics) is likely a scam assuming it's even real.

Based. Can't believe we're getting a new one this year. It looks good, too.

Thank god the waiting list is small. Hopefully this dumb fuck gets "uploaded" soon. People like him have completely ruined the tech industry and they all need to die. Bunch of delusional, narcissistic snake oil salesmen.

if you care what billionaire faggots do, you're not gonna make it.
people like that, who on paper have a lot of money (it's literally just plastic and paper with a paper printed on it), are in actual reality, worth less human resources than junkie hobos.

Was gonna say this is a crazy digital mummification process as no one has created a way to map the brain and digitize it so this is just a fucking crazy new mummy procedure that just like in ancient egypt the rich and powerful paid s shit ton for- not seeing many of them walking around these days

Maybe he collects it after he's woken up in cyberspace. jk even if they copied him perfectly he would die and all that would be left would be a part he had cast out like a mold that would be prone to glitches, hallucinations, and all that fun AI stuff. What a stupid motherfucker.

Ace Combat is honestly a really /x/ franchise. Every game revolves around some sort of psy-op/false flag with mysterious factions pulling the strings and profiting from conflict.

Funniest part to me about these cryo companies is that people assume they'll still be around in 200 years these niggerass companies are gonna go broke and your cryogenically frozen corpse is going to be auctioned off
>>
So you die and some digital copy lives in a virtual world. Why would anyone care if some cloned version of themselves is living in some shitty metaverse when the real you is dead? How is it not just a copy? Why care about a copy, a mimick that's not you?
>>
>>
Let's assume that the digital copy really is "you," for all intents and purposes. (A big assumption) Why the fuck would you trust a computer to store your consciousness? Have these people ever used a computer? How do you safeguard against crashes and software glitches? Not to mention viruses and targeted attacks. What's to stop a hacker from hacking your brain and torturing you for all eternity? Also like hell I'd trust a corporation to control my consciousness, imagine having ads inserted into your memories and dreams. Or else they'll keep raising the monthly fee to force you to mine crypto or get your consciousness shut off permanently. AI will make things even weirder. This isn't just suicidal but straight up retarded. Imagine handing the keys to your brain to fucking Microsoft.

Was there esoteric meaning to this episode of ATHF?
I feel like there was
