Andrew Knight
Inventor Andrew Knight explains why the laws of physics, especially Special Relativity and Quantum Mechanics, prove that conscious states cannot be copied or repeated — that is, it’s impossible to copy consciousness. As a consequence, consciousness is not algorithmic, artificial intelligence will never become conscious, mind uploading and digital immortality are impossible, the human brain cannot be digitized or copied, and teleportation of humans will remain science fiction. This video is a brief summary of two independent proofs that conscious states cannot be copied, which are found in other YouTube videos.
