We intent to show two things in this essay: that the
mind uploading is no longer a myth and that the extended mind is a reality. To
this theory we called the Artificial Extended Mind (AEM). Thus, the essay
will be divided in three main sections. In the first section, we will revisit
some of the literature produced on mind loading and extended theory of mind. In
the next section, we approach a new type of cybercrime, namely neurocrime (the
first news and formulations about this type of crime began to appear at the
beginning of this century), with the purpose of seeing possibilities to
understand the concept of mind and brain in this specific scenario. From its
definition and scope, we seek to understand how to frame a theory of the
brain-mind relationship. Finally, we outline a new configuration of the theory
of the extended mind, which, according to the premises raised by the previous
reflections, will allow, on one hand, to dictate the end of the myth of mind
uploading and on the other hand, allowing to show that an extended mind is also
an artificialized mind (AEM theory). this certainly will allow to open doors to future reflections on the
integration of artificial intelligence in an increasingly artificial human
reality.
