Includes sexbots, and excludes uploaded versions of me.

The point is to exclude uploaded versions of you. I'm more concerned about including plucked chickens.

BTW, what is the difference between a sexbot and a catgirl?

A sexbot is a robot for sex -- still a human under the featherless biped definition as long as has two legs and no feathers.

If the point is to exclude "uploaded versions", what counts as uploaded? How about if I transfer my mind (brain state) to another human body? If that makes me still a human, what rational basis is there for defining a mind-body system as human or not based on the kind of the body it is running in?
