Will Simulated Minds Be Real?
Author argues that if we simulate a whole brain and get to creatures with the behavior or capacities that you and i have, they would be conscious.

I don't give a shit if i lock up my sim in a little room and it, you know, peas itself and dies - but is there, how, at what point would i start to feel otherwise?
