To be serious. I question all this talk about persons. We are an illusion.
Yep. Uploading your brain into a computer and then dying in your sleep... you aren't going to wake up the next morning in virtual reality. You will still be dead. There will be a computer/robot getting around that thinks it's you, and for all intents and purposes is you. But the you who died in your sleep won't know shit about that.

A question that arises, if the multiverse exists, is how that scenario would be qualitatively different from the collapse the wave function moment to moment?

There is no you. It's all a big illusion.
