That is principally different from people is that the system evolution is
synchronous and deterministic (until we inject noise), contains discrete
state which can be read out and compared (measurement) at each clock tick.
We don't have subjective perception muddying up the picture, as no one is
going to identify with SHRDLU, as it is too trivial for that, yet not too
trivial as it is doing something interesting.

I'm ready to translate any gedanken you want to do with flesh people,
cloning, teleporting and similiar into this framework. Let's roll.
