33: When will we upload our consciousness to the cloud?

When will we upload our consciousness to the cloud? As long as people have been alive, they've wanted to stay alive. For centuries, explorers have searched for the fountain of youth.

But what if -- instead of preserving our *bodies* -- we could preserve our *consciousness*; by uploading it to a powerful computer. This is called *mind uploading*. And one startup has developed a procedure to do exactly this. It's scientifically sound, there's a waiting list to participate, and the procedure -- is one hundred percent fatal.
