Many people theorize that in principle, the brain could be uploaded to a computer which would then contain the person's consciousness. Would a successful demonstration of this be compatible with Judaism? (Don't worry for now how something like that could actually be shown. Say an advanced MRI-like machine would predict everyone's [who steps in it] actions with 100% accuracy, or something similar.)

Being as the answers to this: Is the brain the seat of the soul?Is the brain the seat of the soul? seem to say that such a thing is incompatible with Judaism, that should mean that seeing that such a thing can exist, would be powerful evidence against free will, and therefore Judaism.
