Good one, AIs aren't too far away, maybe 20 years or so. Will we give
them rights? Should we? What about clones, we all know that this is just
a matter of time. Will the religious attack clones as creations of
mankind, or take them in? What memes will clones develope as defense
against the oppression they are sure to face? Will there be a eugenics
war? We can build close to fight the malignant AIs.
