Very sorry about your wife. I think MAID is great, not perfect and going to have some kinks but it means well and hopefully those who want it can access it.

It was sad indeed. Every entity from bacteria to man faces their eventual end - bacteria have no funerary overhead and keep few records. We humans anticipate and fight against this terminal state. I suspect there will come a time when the human neurome will be mapped, but it might be sooner than we think. Once mapped = copied in silica/positronium? and there it/we can endure? Might be boring - we have a clock speed of ~~13 hertz, what if we upclock to 13 Ghz = every second the meat wakes = 1,000,000,000 silicon ticks, as I say = boring. Of course we will evolve games/puzzles/tasks/jobs to fill this time, and a smart code loop might enslave us = eternal bit bondage somewhere on the bitcoin chain gang. https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2024/12/09/298-...
