By the end of this century, humans may choose to live life digitally, without being limited to biological restraints. This process called mind uploading will involve the exact replication of an existing biological brain. The scans would capture every cognitive detail down to the cellular level. Each replication would include personality traits, memories, thoughts and even quirks. As fascinating as this may sound, the technology will have several ethical implications as there is no way of distinguishing the ‘real’ human consciousness from an artificial copy.
