为什么值得读
- 构想父亲为儿子制作数字心智备份的动人故事
- 提供基于通用脑模型微调的务实意识上传路径
- 严谨探讨意识数字化过程中技术与伦理的真实壁垒
Nasim 是一名年轻的计算机科学家，一心期望参与 Human Connectome Project：这是一项旨在绘制人脑全部神经连接的计划。然而该项目的资助被取消，她最终将职业生涯倾注于 Zendegi——一个拥有数百万用户的计算机虚拟世界。15年后，Connectome Project 重获启动。

……有点本末倒置了，因为他那一套终极超人类主义的设想，多少默认了我们在达到那种技术水平之前，不会因为赫胥黎式的反乌托邦而自我毁灭。想看更现实一点的技术整合落地过程，建议读读 Greg Egan 的《Zendegi》。
…cart before the horse, because his brand of end-point transhumanism sorta assumes that we WON'T destroy ourselves through Huxwellian dystopias before getting to that level of technology. Read Egan's Zendegi for a more realistic take for how that technology integration will go down.
……人工智能本身就值得一读。Egan 的作品均匀地分为近未来和远未来科幻；远未来的作品往往非常抽象。他的最新小说《Zendegi》设定在非常近的未来，碰巧比他其他大多数作品更易读。我建议从它开始。
…artificial intelligence is worth the read by itself. Egan's stuff divides evenly into near-future and distant future science fiction; the distant future stuff tends to be very abstract. His latest novel, Zendegi, is a very near-future setting, and coincidentally is a more accessible read than most of his other stuff. I'd recommend it to start with.
如果你喜欢硬科幻，我推荐读读 Greg Egan 的《Zendegi》。其中一条主线讲的是一位父亲在临终前为儿子制作了一个数字版的自己。- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zendegi - http://www.gregegan.net/ZENDEGI/ZENDEGI.html
If you like hard sci-fi I'd recommend reading Zendegi by Greg Egan. One of the main plot-lines is about a father creating a digital version of himself to leave for his son when he dies. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zendegi - http://www.gregegan.net/ZENDEGI/ZENDEGI.html
如果你还没读过，那你真得尽可能多读读 Greg Egan 的书。他的短篇《学习成为我》（Learning To Be Me）和《更贴近》（Closer）既令人不安又精彩绝伦，但 Egan 真正开始深入探讨脑机接口（BCI）挑战以及人类心智真正整合或数字化的地方，是在长篇小说《Zendegi》里。
If you haven't already, you need to read as much Greg Egan as you can. His short stories "Learning To Be Me" and "Closer" are as disturbing as they are wonderful, but it's the novel "Zendegi" where Egan really starts to explore the challenges of BCI and actual integration or digitization of a human mind.
Greg Egan 的书《Zendegi》里也有类似的情节。开篇讲的是有人抓轨翻录自己的音乐文件，以及由此引发的一系列复制品问题（大概是这个意思）。但这绝对是一本很有意思的书，而且它探讨了……
Also something like this happens in the Greg Egan book Zendegi. It starts off with a anecdote about someone ripping their music files and the issues that arise from the copy (or something along those lines). But definitely an interesting read and one that tackles…
Greg Egan 的另一本书《Zendegi》和 MMAcevedo 有更多交集。它探讨了一种在不久的将来（可能）更可行的意识上传方案：拿一个通用的大脑模型，根据某个具体人类的反应来进行微调（fine-tune）……
Another book by Greg Egan - "Zendegi" - has more overlap with MMAcevedo. It covers a different approach to mind uploading (possibly) more practical in near future: a generic model of the brain is fine-tuned on responses from a specific human.…
