Small question, which I hope is very relevant: Is an AI allowed to simulate being another mind, and actually be able to experience the simulation itself? That is, not merely witness the simulation, but actually get to feel like whatever it is simulating, to whatever degree it wants to (even fully, if possible, though we might expect it to be at most a superposition of both minds, not wholly one or the other). This might be separate from the question of whether it actually would do this, given the option to.
