      If you could create a perfect simulation of your brain, what would happen to your consciousness? Would you suddenly exist in two places at once, and if so, what would it be like to be thinking two sets of thoughts at the same time?

          Is the underlying assumption here that the brain is the consciousness?

          That consciousness is a property of functional brains.

          Would you say that twins are a simulation of the same genetic code, where the scenario you mentioned happens at the time of conception rather than during lifetime. The difference just being real life memories and inputs.

          So the way I imagine this is pretty much like twins, where after two entities are there - both take on their own lives after an initial sense of disbelief because it will be really unusual to have your copy. Identical twins wherever just aren't used to any other reality.

          I love you, Gur. I was wondering what curry to make with the chicken giblets I have received in my organic meat box.

          I suggest the 'brain' would require a body as a prerequisite to developing consciousness. Antonio Damasio explains his hypothesis of 'self' emerging from our total nervous system (not just the brain) in his marvelous book 'Self Comes to Mind'.

          Consciousness is an illusion, and both copies would report experiencing consciousness. This is a great book on some of the social and economic implications of brain emulation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Age_of_Em …

          It would be like gaining an instant twin. Nothing would happen to my consciousness and we would not remain completely identical
