I am faced with a variation of this right now. I have a relatively short-term prognosis, and am trying to document as many meaningful question and response multimedia as I can for my family, before I pass. interestingly, if I had the option to upload my mind or conscious, I don't think I would choose to, given the many ways that could turn sour. similarly, I don't think I would choose to have progeny that couldn't experience the sun on their face, and who were only black box models that I could speak to.
