I do like the idea of organ transplants for certain.
Okay, so we harvest the organs...is it ethical to use the unused portion for food? I could be like veal.
Now i’m Imagining hundreds of years from now, when future peoples are studying this.
“As you can see, Neo-native Americans used every part of the clone.”

It brings up interesting legal/ethical questions
Haven't we ploughed through this issue in about 500 movies to include Blade Runner, Solo, etc...

We spent all this time wondering if we could, we never stopped to think if we should. Life...uh...finds a way.

Looks like a mad race to exterminate the human race between these guys and AI.

if we should put an end to these experiments before it is too late.
There’s no “if” here. All of this needs to be stopped and destroyed with the quickness.
