About ”turn over every stone in the universe a trillion times to resurrect the ones I love”:
My emotions resonate deeply with yours. However, if we seriously explore the technical aspects of this question, it’s not the case.
Recently, I’ve been thinking about the irreversible loss of a person’s information. Once information of a person is lost, it is gone forever. The challenge isn’t about exhaustively searching under every stone in the universe—it’s about determining whether what lies beneath a stone is the answer. When you turn over a stone, you cannot confirm whether the “him” you find is truly “him,” because you lack sufficient information about “him.”
Accurate resurrect of a person can only rely on the information within the brain—anything else would be too far away, even the one who love him most.
I sketched a framework of information and ethical value [here]. Might be relevant if you’re curious.
