mind-uploading

Mind-uploading is the hypothetical process of transferring a person's consciousness, memories, and personality from their biological brain to a digital or artificial medium, such as a computer. This involves creating a detailed, functional replica of the brain's structure and activity, allowing the mind to operate independently of the biological body. The goal is to preserve an individual's identity and mental processes in a machine, which could potentially enable digital immortality or new ways of experiencing life. While technically challenging and ethically complex, it remains a concept mainly explored in science fiction and future theoretical discussions.
