Experience may be like that; everything has 'experience', it's just not human experience and when you stop having human experience you're dead.


Why? If by dying we remember being something different from human, I would still feel like I am surviving. (Amazingly, salvia can lead to such an experience/hallucination).

Yes, if you remember. But I don't remember anything earlier than about age 4 and neither do other people I know. Which then implies that we are not past eternal and so it is possible to not be future eternal.


Also, with comp, not everything has experience. Only persons, and they need the support of some computational self-reference ability.

And brains provide that support.
