Okay so... Say we saw both our brains in half at the hemispheres.

We fuse the left hemisphere of my brain with your right. And we fuse the left side of YOUR brain with MY right.

Which one gets your "I", and which one gets my "I"? I was reading about patients who have undergone surgical splitting of their brain and I am now curious about this hypothetical.

The timeshare becomes equivocal. The prefrontal that dominates the "I" you speak of will be in chaos. Garble will come out, unless one half somehow constructs some order, or an agreement is reached with both.

Neither one gets either I. We both cease to exist as such, and the resulting abominations have a severe identity crisis.

The patients who undergo splitting of the hemispheres of the brain, are still fully functional. But the two sides are independent. I wondered which side gets the "I"... But then taken one step further to fusing hemispheres of two different people.

Evierything that has ever been said about the brain is a lie. It is just a giant filter for turning impressions into dna and the reverse case for memory.
