This device can reactivate dead brains:

The DNC will be strongly opposed to this. It would decimate their voter base.

Would be nice to download someone’s life; their experiences and knowledge, store it like in a library of sorts.

No, and the headline is deliberately lying. But they will try, and try, and eventually do it to a human. This, and brain “transplants” are stupid and should not be allowed, but they will happen regardless.

If it’s just software running on the brain, projected from the cloud, when the brain “dies”, the consciousness is gone from that particular brain forever.

In the cloud.

Hmmm.

The Yale scientists said they harbor no such plans, and have not published photos or exact descriptions of the BrainEx device. They also stressed that the treated brain lacked any recognizable global electrical signals associated with normal brain function.

...

If they put that in the title they wouldn’t have a click bait article.

“At no point did we observe the kind of organized electrical activity associated with perception, awareness, or consciousness,” added co-first author Zvonimir Vrselja, an associate research scientist in neuroscience. “Clinically defined, this is not a living brain, but it is a cellularly active brain.”

Yup. That's how you get zombies, all right. Or Democrats.

Reminds me of “Herbert West–Reanimator” by H.P. Lovecraft. It did not turn out well.
