"What is technological existentialism?"
Ask yourself this, "what are some of the enhancements to human living that are enabled by modern technologies?" "Is there such a thing as an "existential" philosophy of technology"
Your answers don't matter anyway. 2 counterparts, your real-life self (external+internal) and your 'technological' self (storage). You're most likely born in an era where you had technology at a young age, where your soul and history will be permanent in the crowd of metal, electricity, and watchers. Friend of yours can die and all you can have left is their messages and posts and any other platform that was long used by them. If that was gone, there will be nothing left for you to see besides their rotting polished corpse in their coffin. We are encoded in the web's database to provide proof of our soul. We are preserved in pdfs, jpegs, numerous files, saved chats, and code, it doesn't end. Our souls are a single copy stored in the waves of the internet where things come and go and kept. Your past is preserved while your future is being predicted with your eyes on the screen and the mind of the computer. You'd always be remembered and not always in the way that you'd like. Even after decades, a piece of you will be lurking in the depths of the technology that man invented. Reached immortality in these machines. Your memory will be kept in pngs and preserved in your archive chats. Continuing to seek the intersections of technology.
