An enhaidentireplica - an enhanced identical replica - is a body that produces your ixperiencitness (the quality that makes your conscious experience yours) while also having capabilities beyond yours. It is not merely a copy; it is an improved version. It has your consciousness plus more.

Enhanced replicas raise interesting questions about whether "more" changes identity. If a body produces your experience but also has additional mental capacities you lack, is it you? The theory argues that if the core structure producing your ixperiencitness is present, the enhancement does not negate identity - it adds to it.

What this means

An enhanced replica is still you, even with added capabilities - identity is determined by the consciousness produced, not by the absence of improvements.

From the awaretheory.com wiki (advanced reference)

The word enhaidentireplica is made from the first four letters of the word enhancement and the word identireplica. The word enhaidentireplica corresponds to the term enhaoriginal in the same way that the word identireplica corresponds to the word original.

Enhaidentireplica is an enhanced identireplica. There appear to be many ways to enhance itobodies such as original, cidentireplica, videntireplica, isoidentireplica, fidentireplica, or musidentireplica and maintain the same ixperiencitness. See Types of enhancement, superpaths, superawarepaths, superphysipaths, enhaprinciples and enhanalogies.

If scientists put a computer chip in your body connected to your brain in such a way that you could instantly do many forms of mathematics, this would be a form of original enhancement. The result would be an enoriginal. If we make a cidentireplica of this enhaoriginal we would have a enhaidentireplica.

Itoidentireplicas is the grouping name for identireplicas, cidentireplicas, videntireplicas, fidentireplicas, isoidentireplicas, bioidentireplicas, enhaidentireplicas, insidentireplicas, musidentireplicas, tridentireplicas, comboidentireplicas, nrgidentireplicas, and simidentireplicas.
