Dissociating those inputs/outputs does not disable the sentience of the being. Therefore that emulated echo of a meat-consciousness trapped in a silicon prison, though it would have a bizarre experience, is a sentient and living being for so long as the electromagnetic transformations that occur in time in real space by biological means are properly emulated. Regardless of whether that being was endowed its existence by your God or by technology.

Blah blah blah

Btw, this is precisely why such bullshit should not be paid for with tax dollars. Its a belief based on blind faith, aka religion.

[JurisDictum]

Transhumanism (abbreviated as H+ or h+) is an international philosophical movement that advocates for the transformation of the human condition by developing and making widely available sophisticated technologies to greatly enhance human intellect and physiology.[1][2]

Transhumanist thinkers study the potential benefits and dangers of emerging technologies that could overcome fundamental human limitations as well as the ethical[3] limitations of using such technologies.[4] The most common transhumanist thesis is that human beings may eventually be able to transform themselves into different beings with abilities so greatly expanded from the current condition as to merit the label of posthuman beings

It's a pretty broad category to go claiming has no merit or use. It's that kind of small minded BS post that proves we have sorted very well in meritocracy.

quadruple throndor tweakerpost calling my bizness "faith"

while the tweak hinges his argument on consciousness being a phenomenon that may only occur in carbon based meat
