If those things have any sort of self awareness then creation of them is against my ethics
Science should never make self aware living organisms
Edit: I'm not vegan either just to add context, I eat meat
Given that they breed rats by the thousands for experiments, kinda too late for that.
Well those are rats that have a natural origin or ancestry
Whatever these things are are created artificially as far as I'm aware
In any event the article says
It's a little blob of brain tissue. Consciousness requires a great deal more.
They're very small clusters of brain cells. They're capable of very baseline functioning but that's it, there's not enough for self-awareness.
And why should YOUR ethics be the constraint science must follow?
You people are insufferable. No one gives a shit about your ethics over something that literally doesn't exist.
It's shameful that you think you should have control over other things people create. Shame on you. Mind your business. This has literally nothing to do with you.
Bro who are you talking to
