What model is your brain?

How does the idea of ​​receiving an artificial brain transplant get you? Doctors have assured him that not only have all his memory structures been uploaded and tested in the new brain, but they have also been rebuilt and are clearer than ever. You will remember the things that happened to you when you were five years old as clearly as if they happened yesterday. There will be a period of therapy, of course, in which cyberpsychologists will help you adjust your memories, inhibiting traumatic ones or integrating them into compatible experiences and, through constant cross-reference with your current brain matrix, ensuring that it will still be yours.

The year is 2110. While people with artificial brains are still few in number, they are increasing and seem to be doing very well. Of course, no one can really tell if they are really the same person or not, but emotionally they respond completely normally. Like you, all of these recipients had a fatal brain disorder, and while a brain transplant could spell death for the genuine human that is the patient, they were going to die anyway.

In this world of the future, strict laws and controls on the use of cyber technology were established many years before. It was clear that cybernetics was fast becoming a threat to the human race. Society saw the day when the cybernetic brain would be perfected and surpassed the human and would be suppressed. Computers were restricted to the use of strictly binary technology.

Of course, not everyone obeys the law, and humans who are wealthy enough undergo all kinds of transplants under bogus licenses. Governments are secretly developing cybernetic super brains. And like in Blade Runner, cyborgs exist among us and are persecuted. Could this be the future? Quite possibly so.
