Reply to comment by ebolathrowawayy in When does an individual's death occur if the biological brain is gradually replaced by synthetic neurons? by NefariousNaz
As long as we agree that the original won't move anywhere, we can probably agree on the particulars of the copy being changed compared to the original. save those neurons for ENS. (engineered negligible senescence) (And even ENS will replace some cells we lost and thus make part of our brain partly an impostor)

However a mind is copied, I don't think there would be an experience to the mind of being "uploaded" or moved. I would think the mind would probably not even be aware of the change unless the procedure was obvious and the copy would think nothing unusual happened unless they're told they were copied or if the procedure was obvious.

The original would go into an advanced MRI machine and the copy would only remember it. The original would still be stuck in his/her/they own brain.
The copy would always think the "upload" worked. As long as the original don't survive the process.
