a computer can only take in data, in the sense that you "upload" your brain. all it can do is work with your data. now you're saying, if you can upload a brain you can upload the brain's functions. I highly doubt this, as brains are of such a matter that there's no way of a computer being able to inherit these functions. now I can imagine a computer being able to read brain patterns and hold that data in memory, use that data to decide what action to carry out. Even then it would be a form of AI. I do not imagine a computer ever being able to gain a proper "personality" from a brain, or do anything even close to "respecting a person's opinions". that's just insane, dude.

similarly, if a computer were able to use a brain in such a complex way, then we are all essentially acting on a form of AI, since our AI can be used by a computer to do everything we are able to do. No way. a computer cannot start taking in data and respecting peoples' beliefs.
