(a)
To transfer the consciousness and mental structure of a person from a biological matrix
to an electronic
or informational matrix
(this assumes that the strong AI postulate holds). The term
"Downloading" is also sometimes used, mainly to denote transferring
the mind
to a slower or less spacious matrix.
(b) The resulting infomorph
person. For more information, see the Mind Uploading
Home Page or my upload page. [The origin of the term is uncertain, but
obviously based on the computer technology
term 'uploading'
(loading data into a mainframe computer).]
