Mind uploading won’t work the way people imagine

Nor should it. A realistic mind uploading procedure that works according to physics will not be a one to one transfer. An exact simulation of biological processes would be incredibly glitchy and inefficient. A more realistic path is to use a human brain as an “embryo” for a mind that is equipped to take full advantage of the physics of a solid state substrate.

The mind would remember everything about its past self and be able to perfectly mimic its old personality but it will have become something more. Instead of direct transfer a better analogy is reproduction across substrate or metamorphosis inside a digital chrysalis.
