Heh. This is another case where I'd like to know up and down votes rather than their sum.
Anyway, to answer your question: I have no idea what I would say after a year of torture, but speaking right now: I have at least some interest in avoiding a year's worth of torture for an observer, so given the option I'd rather you didn't do it. So, no, I wouldn't say the same thing.
But that doesn't seem to depend on the fact that the observer in question is a simulation of me from a year ago.
I don't see anything inconsistent about believing that a good life loses values with repetition, but a bad life does not lose disvalue. It's consistent with the Value of Boredom, which I thoroughly endorse.
Now, there's a similar question where I think my thoughts on the subject might get a little weird. Imagine you have some period of your life that started out bad, but then turned around and then became good later so that in the end that period of life was positive on the net. I have the following preferences in regards to duplicating it:
I would not p
Suppose I have choice between the following:
A) One simulation of me is run for me 100 years, before being deleted.
B) Two identical simulations of me are run for 100 years, before being deleted.
Is the second choice preferable to the first? Should I be willing to pay more to have multiple copies of me simulated, even if those copies will have the exact same experiences?
Forgive me if this question has been answered before. I have Googled to no avail.
