Cloned militaries. Eliminating birth defects. Relieving women from the pain of childbirth.
Also to solve the problem of low birth rates, and allow people to perpetuate themselves. Elon Musk could clone himself and raise his copy to eventually take over his businesses after him.

- mardifoufs 5y agoWe could almost certainly get to human cloning very fast; the technology isn't really the botttleneck. It's just that no one does it and for very good reasons. The only way human cloning could be useful and help "solve" any problem would also involve going back to chatel slavery. Why would any research go towards that? It's not like star wars, human clones would still be human.
