How close is it to reality in future of consciousness to be transferable as shown in the movie Chappie?
I have seen - and enjoyed! - the movie last week-end and asked myself the same question. 

Let's face it, we are so far from being able to transfer knowledge from one human being to a machine with the help of a "mind-reader". The main point is that we don't have a useful brain signal to read from (the ones we know have structural limits).

No good brain signal, no associated technology and no reading device. On the contrary, we probably have the technology at the end of the human-to-machine process (a way to transfer and store a mind).
