MY CLONE
If I were given the opportunity to have my clone created scientifically with all my traits and characteristics, I think I would go for it even though it could have possible repercussions.
I would accept the offer because having a clone with everything in me would make me feel like I'm actually two people in this world. Just as the prompt announcement suggested, if the clone were made in a way that allowed it to share my feelings such as sadness and joy, that would mean my real self would not have to worry about sadness in life again, because I hate sadness. I would simply push my sad feelings onto the clone whenever sadness comes. With this arrangement, I would live a freer and better life because I wouldn't have dull emotions weighing me down.
If I had a clone, I would share my work with that entity. This would mean greater productivity too, because it would be like having a machine do most of the work while my real self relaxes or do a little. But if the clone came with the same level of strength as me, I would still know how to distribute tasks to avoid a breakdown, since it is a person with limited capabilities. Imagine a situation where I no longer needed to participate in work at all and could simply channel tasks to the clone, life would be sweet.
However, there would be a problem if the clone had a direct connection to me. By “direct connection” I mean if the clone's pain translated to my body when it experienced pain while working, or if the clone died or were killed and that led to my death. If it were built that way, I would refuse the idea.
Thanks.
