(Joke starts at 30sec.)

Occam’s razor is choosing the simplest answer. There is no simple answer when it comes to teleportation. I’m not sure there is a full break in consciousness when we sleep. Consciousness may not even be the right word…

In this case I’m not defining consciousness as simply being awake, but instead defining it as the perspective from which each individual perceives the universe.

That sounds like a form of last Thursdayism. The entire universe could’ve been created last Thursday with everything made to seem older, including everyone’s memories. These philosophies are usually shot down by occam’s razor.

If you make a perfectly exact replica of yourself do you suddenly perceive the universe from two perspectives?
