Laurie Ann Paul's Book Transformative Experience moved the discussion of Philosophy from the abstract tp the personally felt life experiences.[1]
Context
While it is clear that the original author of Transformative Experience was talking about humans with an Identity that survives the transformation, it is less clear about how this idea might apply to a non-human Entity. It would appear that if the Entity had an Identity that survived the transformation, then this idea could well apply to that experience as well. This process has been used to examine a decision to transform genders, among other types of transformations. The original author "realized that she was preoccupied by the notion that we all consist of multiple selves who cannot be counted on to agree with one another across time."
So the major question to be addressed might be "What does a person's continuous Identity even mean?"
Problems
The concept of an Entity Identity has not been well articulated during the ascendancy of Artificial Intelligence in 2024.
Solutions
In upgrading my mobile Smartphone to include an Artificial Intelligence I had a Transformative Experience that needs to be examined and extrapolated to the continued march of technological progress.
