Why this dilemma matters
Technology rarely asks for permission once it works, so the ethics has to land before deployment. Choosing “Sì, perché il potenziale di salvare vite umane esistenti giustifica l'uso di embrioni clonati a scopo medico” prioritises the capability it unlocks; choosing “No, perché creare vite umane anche in forma embrionale solo come mezzo per un fine le riduce a mere risorse biologiche” gives more weight to the agency it costs.
Worth asking yourself
- What would you give up to keep this capability?
- Who benefits from this, and who absorbs the risk?

- An AI generates a masterpiece painting with no human creative input. Who owns the copyright?
- A self-driving car's brakes fail. It must choose: swerve into a barrier (killing the passenger) or hit a pedestrian who jaywalked.
- Scientists can upload your consciousness to a computer perfectly. Your biological body must die in the process. Is the digital version still you?
- You can permanently delete all social media from existence. The world becomes slower and less connected, but global mental health improves 40%.
