Little help?
At 8.53 in the video I can't make out what Anders says..sounds something like "four knockoff versions of myself". Is this correct, do you guys think?

I believe he is saying "fork off versions of me", which is operating system terminology for "making a duplicate process." Forking a consciousness is similar to the idea of making copies that he talked about earlier.
