What Are Mindfiles?

A mindfile is the sum of saved digital reflections about you.  All of the stored emails, chats, texts, IMs and blogs that you write are part of your mindfile.  All of the uploaded photos, slide shows and movies that involve you are part of your mindfile.  Your search histories, clicked selections and online purchases, if saved, are part of your mindfile.  Your digital life is your mindfile.

Excuse me for a second while I explore another use of mindfiles, and simultaneously add to my own mindfile.

I believe that with suffice data on anybody and the use of artificial intelligence it may be possible to create a biological clone of someone and then upload there mindfile to the biological brain, thus creating a full true clone of someone. An exact physical clone is not enough to fool mom, she will notice your habits and your little quirks are missing. So what makes you is not just your dna but the thoughts and ideas you have expressed and collected in your lifetime. Unfortunately our dna is not in flux to represent the person were becoming every day. So a backup of your thoughts may be needed to ever be able to truly recreate you in the digital of physical realm. The main appeal to such a technology is the potential resurrection of a lost loved one i.e kurzweil and he's desire to bring hes dad back to life.


Pushing all of this even further out:

Over time people may simply opt not to blog or do anything else vs having nanobots at key centers of the brain that are recording synaptic patterns, as a form to reach a perpetual biological immortality...

And finally to my future clones.

Are you guys truly me?
