But YOU are your brain.. artificial or natural.. the only thing won't be you, it'll your new body.. This is not a clone, this is a mind uploading.. Today people can implant bionic legs, arms.. If you can replace every member of your body to a bionic piece except your natural brain, you'll continue the same person, right? If as last step, your natural brain also was replaced to an identical but artificial brain, wouldn't be you the same too?
