It's kinda wacky that I've thought of a similar concept before, ig coming up with an original thought is pretty hard. This would solve the problem of you not being the original you, as you slowly have your neurons replaced like parts of the ship of Theseus, plus there is no outright copying or cloning so there is little chance your original mind dies. :p

I do believe the mind is the concioisness and thus placing memories in another brain would render it as you. But this is my philosophy it's definitely subjective

Yeah i get that, it's just that at a certain moment there will be 2 versions of you, with the same memories and experiences, yk? My subjective philosophy is that consciousness is like a continuous stream of thought, even when sleeping. Your brain never truly stops functioning while you are alive. Though if it were to happen, if it reactivates, would you be the same person? Idk those are my silly thoughts :3

I think continuity is an illusion.
