Re: It’s the wetware
Since we can make real human beings fairly easily and in a fun way, other than for interest’s sake why would you do this?"
The expectation is:
1) such creations will live much longer than humans.
2) their state at any time can be replicated in clones.
As human knowledge gets distributed into manageable portions - then it creates silos whose knowledge is incomplete or built on misconceptions. People learn levels of abstraction as a "truth" - without an understanding of the constraints beneath them.
The Enlightenment was three centuries ago. Looking at the news recently it appears that several generations have been raised without the benefits of such thinking.
