Thought Experiment #1

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

If you were to undergo surgery that swapped your brain with someone else’s, what would you experience after the operation?

  • You are in a new body?
  • You are in your old body?
  • “You” would be gone and a new “you” with all your memories would carry on?
  • There is no such thing as “you”? (the question is invalid)
  • Something else?
