Human cloning (media) and human cloning (real life) are two completely different processes that don’t have anything to do with each other. Human cloning in real life is a way to spend too much money to get something that is worse than just two people fucking.
While this is totally true and valid. It’s also a question of refinement. Human clone gen 10 is still going to give you a Dolly type situation, gen 100? Idk man.
It really isn’t. It’s a problem of people not understanding what cloning is. You seem to be talking about accelerated aging or something, which is just a different concept that gets lumped into cloning in sci fi because the reality of cloning itself is ultimately pointless.
I’m not sure what you’re saying. AI can be over hyped and misunderstood too. It’s not like there’s a limit to the number of things that can be underwhelming compared to common depictions.
Human cloning could be used to harvest organs and blood. I can imagine a lot of money could be made offering perfectly compatible transplant organs harvested from cloned people with O-negative blood.
and the issue of how to raise a child to carry the organs and then…harvest them all at once? If you take the heart from the clone, what, you just trash the kidneys and liver?
Firstly, I would be much more swayed by your argument had you not linked some AI slop article sprinkled in em-dashes and containing zero sources/links, much less reputable ones.
Secondly, we can imagine that such technology would be much more mature if it were legal and considered ethically acceptable to perform on humans.
Third, you could grow multiple people simultaneously and in intervals, such that multiple clients’ needs can be met by taking apart one host. We already have existing variable pricing systems, so a less-efficient scenario would simply cost the customer more. To a multi-billionaire, what is a couple billion dollars if you might live 10 more years? To the service provider, what is ‘wasted [insert organs]’ to the tune of a billion dollars or more in profit?
I mean none of those have immediate and massive financial advantages to the people doing them though.
Human cloning could print a workforce. Or an army.
Human fucking is already doing that.
Yes but they get to experience outside and music and get ideas.
Can’t have any of that nonsense.

As opposed to AI?
More or less the same as AI
