I strongly disagree with that.

Oh, so you would rather clone Hitler and Stalin than Musk and Gates?

Why not neither?

That's got to be the mother of all false dichotomies.

Godwin aside, the point is valid. When I look at Musk? Sure, he's overrated, acts like a nerdy teenager who never grew up — "Rockets are cool! Sports cars are cool! I know, I'll put a sports car on a rocket!" — but even where I think he's surrounded himself with sycophants (IMO Boring Company, Neuralink, based purely on what I'm told by civil engineers and brain scientists) not really evil.

Misaligned and powerful, so an easy example of how an AI can go wrong; but you don't have to reach for Auschwitz or the Holodomor to find people much worse to clone than him.

As for Gates? The worst true thing I've heard about him was Internet Explorer. And possibly Clippy.

Maybe I misinterpreted your “I strongly disagree” comment. I thought you meant Musk and Gates are the worst people to be cloned.

Aren't you embarrassed to field such peurile arguments? Really, that's an insult to everyone else's intelligence.

Ok, I'll invoke Godwin and end this comment subthread.
