Whole Brain Emulation is going to create synthetic humans, if the functionalist point of view is right, by implementing their thought processes in forthcoming hardware, and software systems, which could arrive as early as the middle of this century. What are the rights of these uploads? How will their existence impact our economy, and the society as a whole? Anders Sandberg of the Future Of Humanity Institute of the University of Oxford talks about these issues, which are also going to be the subject of his talk at the Singularity Summit 09 in New York.
Fascinating.

How far has this technology come since the time of this interview in September 28, 2009? -- We are here on April 25, 2011.
Should I contact these people directly? Also, have you heard of TI's (Targeted Individuals?) They are saying this is already happening without consent to human individuals. --
