This has been a concern for me with AI, funny thing is it began with me contemplating a vampire’s death. Then I saw discussion about AI working on this stuff and began taking that same thought process and applied it to a human.
If Bardo is indeed the process after death, extending a beings life on the mortal plane could extend the duration of suffering one experiencs through reincarnation. Longer life = more habits.
Hopefully there is a spiritual balance found while AI begins extending the human condition.
Something like the technology discussed in this thread
( Brain implant to lucid dream! )
may help create that balance.
As said in the thread there, I’d also wait for the less invasive version.
