    I will write a blog complaining about copper prices. If my sources are correct I will be remembered forever.

      Ok that's actually an interesting use of AI. Train on only media from that time period. This is Daniel, from the year 1400. Tell me about the Catholic Church

      This is basically how the persona AIs work. Some of them are focused on an individual, others are trained on a group of individuals.

          We'll be all just data left. Unless someone really bored finds something amusing about certain data entry about somebody, no not really.

            Is that even human tho?

            Like the scientist who invented it will say its human, but from an ontology perspective, you can't ever be sure about that. That could just be killing you and copying your brain.

            No way in hell I'm gonna "upload" my brain. It's suicide. Star trek teleporters are murder machines.

            Why not? It has the thoughts, feelings, memories, and personality of a human. What else is a human? A physical body? Does, then, losong one's leg male one less human?

              Someone will be remembered. It's very unlikely to be me, unless human lifespans get a lot longer, which TBF they probably will.

              Gorbachev will probably still be famous at some point after 3025, let alone 2625, although he might be forgotten and then popularised in between.

                Gonna be awkward as fuck if there is an afterlife and you run into OP after you both expire.

                  Yeah, weird random chance makes a huge difference. Otzi was probably well known, but only hyper-regionally. Lucy was basically just an unusually smart animal, and that was millions of years ago.

                  And just because you're forgotten for a bit doesn't mean you won't come back into style.

                  Hmm. So if you want 15 minutes of fame a long time from now, what's some weird easter egg you can leave?

                    Tradition is just peer pressure from dead people.

                    Sure, but what if the dead people are right? Statistically, they will be some share of the time.

                    The catch is that that goes for all the various disagreeing traditions. Putting priority on your own is sus.

                          Archeologists actually dig up a lot of sex toys, believe it or not. That won't get you noticed.

                          A time capsule with something that nobody else will think to preserve might do it. Way too many preserve things the future is actually meh about. I actually wonder if a weird data footprint might be even better at this point. Like, if you filled out some official form thousands of times just for fun, and someone a long time from now is doing analysis and turns it into a meme.

                              Not me.

                              But from this echo chamber, it surely seems like the current us president will live in infamy. Think about online debates over who was worst president ever: now it’s clear. And if he truly is accelerating the fall of the American century, then yes, he’ll be taught about ins cho for centuries to come

                                I mean, I'm sure you can name a half dozen or so people from the 1400s. I highly doubt anyone will remember me personally as one of those half dozen people, but I'm fairly certain that with the advances in technology the average people of the year 2625 will be dimly aware of closer to a dozen people alive today.

                                  Remember in what capacity? I don't think any of our (users in this thread) names will be a part of conversation or on anyone's mind in any meaningful capacity. I do believe that digital storage is getting better and that our names and information about us will still probably exist somewhere in 600 years. So maybe somewhere someone might see your name. But that's very different than "remembering", you know?

                                      yes, but only the biggest brightest bonfires.

                                      will charlie kirk be known? nah. will Donald Trump be known? absolutely.

                                      the bigger the bonfire, the more damaging it is to society.

                                          I don't really want to be remembered for generations, if I am that means that statistically I was a bastard
