Hmm interesting! What is your personal opinion on escaping death by mind uploading in general?

I am *pissed* we don't have an adequately funded brain mapping project that makes a serious investment into developing new instrumentation. Ed Boyden's lab should be 10x bigger than it is. You can't get "brain uploads" without knowing what's in the brain.

To me, the two obviously motivating types of scientific initiative are a.) the "relief of man's estate" stuff, reducing disease, more efficient production of food/water/energy; and b.) the "know thyself" stuff, what is intelligence even. Brain mapping is both!
