We will one day when transporters are invented.
Even so, you still have to consider the ethical issues as well. But regardless, if or when it happens, then we can consider those questions more thoughtfully to solve those problems. But in the present, it's just something fun to think about for a while when you're bored and have nothing better to do. But, like FatAndFaithless, it's really irrelevant in my present life. And I'm not bothered at all by the concept of the self not being clear. I've long accepted it's a construct that is really useful and practical for us as we interact with others, and it doesn't bother me one bit. I'm still me, regardless.
