The evolution of me has its own rules, which do not violate physics but may be said to transcend them, sort of.
Considering that transhumanists seem to think they can upload their selves onto a different physical substrate, they must not consider themselves to be made up of physics, but Something Else.
[NEEDLESS JAB DELETED BY EDITOR.]
The high-level principles that appear to govern the “evolution of you” do not ‘transcend’ physics, they are rough approximations of the full detail of physics.
As for advocates of uploading, they believe the definitions of their selves are certain properties of the relationships between things, and said properties can be duplicated and transferred between different sets of things. At no point are they ‘Something Else’.
You are confusing two distinct meanings; you are associating ‘made of physics’ with ‘made of substance’, instead of seeing physics as the ruleset by which we are made.
