More likely to do cryonics, since it’s been shown by this piece that successful cryonic preservation is more likely, even if not using standard cryonics tech.
I’m making the same update. If it’s not using standard cryonics tech, and it’s better than standard cryonics tech, presumably the usual suspects will adopt it in the not-too-distant future. As I understand it they’ve done that a couple of times already.
Yup, I was thinking along the same lines. In fact, I’ve taken action on my update, and called the Cryonics Institute to learn about getting the process started.
It is possible that it is better than standard cryonics for uploading, but worse for actual physical revival. So it may depend on how much people care about each of those possibilities.
At this point, I won’t be confident that i’ve been successfully preserved until ultra high resolution electron micrographs of my brain are in Amazon’s S3 storage, replicated across multiple regions. Any storage that doesn’t have redundancy doesn’t count as safe.
In what direction, given that the price didn’t use the standard cryonics tech?
