# Uploaded Intelligence **Domain:** Continuity / Executable Personhood **Primary case:** [[wiki/Pantheon|Pantheon]] An **Uploaded Intelligence** (UI) is an executing computational intelligence derived from an identifiable biological predecessor through a process represented as mind upload or whole-person emulation. The term preserves a distinction that generic “AI” erases: a UI arrives with biography, relationships, obligations, memories and a claim of descent from a prior person. That provenance supplies [[wiki/Continuity Evidence vs Continuity|continuity evidence]], but it does not settle numerical identity or prove that first-person awareness crossed substrates. A reconstructed process may nevertheless deserve standing because metaphysical uncertainty cannot justify ownership, torture or arbitrary deletion. In _Pantheon_, David Kim, Laurie Lowell and Vinod Chanda expose different constitutional operations: destructive acquisition, recognition, custody, memory control, execution, copying and shutdown. The relevant comparison is therefore not simply human versus machine, but [[wiki/Continuant vs Native|continuant versus native]], predecessor versus descendant, and person versus provider-controlled process.
