'''Mind uploading''' is the hypothetical process of copying, moving, or simply reassociating one's memories, personality, consciousness, and/or personal identity from their original physical system (primarily the brain) to a computer.

Mind uploading is considered the likely long term solution to [[life extension]] to protect against physical harm. Such prospective technology and whether a 'self' or personal identity can be copied or moved to, or reassociated with, another substrate is a popular debating point amongst transhumanists and futurists.

Mind uploading is a key piece of technology required to go beyond potential [[Biological immortalists|biological immortality]] into [[posthuman transhumanism]].  It has been proposed that mind uploading is the likely progression of [[alien intelligence]] wherever it arises in the cosmos and that we should conduct SETI along such lines<ref>[http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20160922-what-if-the-aliens-we-are-looking-for-are-ai What if the aliens we're looking for are AI?]</ref><ref>[https://www.amazon.com/Beyond-Humanity-Gregory-S-Paul/dp/1886801215 Beyond Humanity: CyberEvolution and Future Minds]</ref><ref>[https://www.amazon.com/Age-Spiritual-Machines-Computers-Intelligence/dp/0140282025 The Age of Spiritual Machines: When Computers Exceed Human Intelligence]</ref>.
