Assuming that the ability to upload our entire brain to a computer will not be available during out current lifetime, what about the idea of mass data collection of our experiences, storage of this data, then periodically run improving algorithms that combine all our experiences into a consciousness?
This would maybe involve wearing a camera 24/7 to record everything we see and hear, and also some feedback on our own inner thoughts and our own recording of our emotional responses to things. When we finally die, a computer crunches all this data using neural networks to create a consciousness based on our life experiences and emotional responses.
This would initially be maybe not fantastic, but as technology progresses the crunching of the source data improves and every decade a new iteration of our consciousness can be produced, hopefully coming closer and closer to the real us.
