You don’t need to reconstruct all the neurons and synapses, though. If something behaves almost exactly as I would behave, I’d say that thing is me. 20 years of screenshots 8 hours a day is around 14% of a waking lifetime, which seems like enough to pick out from mindspace a mind that behaves very similarly to mine.
Well, I agree, that would help FAI build people similar to you. But why do you want FAI to do that?
And what copying precision is OK for you? Would just making a clone based in your DNA suffice? Maybe, you don’t even have to bother with all these screenshots and photos.

A mind that behaves very similarly to yours while typing at a a computer screen.
Put that mind in a pub and I doubt it will perform well.
