Digital cloning is an emerging technology, that involves deep-learning algorithms, which allows one to manipulate currently existing audio, photos, and videos that are hyper-realistic. [1] One of the impacts of such technology is that hyper-realistic videos and photos makes it difficult for the human eye to distinguish what is real and what is ...
Cloning animals requires procedures that can cause pain and distress, and there can be high failure and mortality rates.” Being able to produce genetically identical monkeys could be useful ...
The scope of bioethics has evolved past mere biotechnology to include topics such as cloning, gene therapy, life extension, human genetic engineering, astroethics and life in space, [7] [8] and manipulation of basic biology through altered DNA, XNA and proteins. [9]
