I think it would be too confusing. What if there were like 5 of someone you hate?Cloning dogs would be great tho.

I feel like it would be beneficial because with more people then we could create and produce more  goods or we could have more people for the military and to help with jobs.
Cloning Humans- Sara
Cloning Humans- Sara
 I believe it wouldn't be beneficial for our society. For one it would cause a lot of money,  and two you would have more than 1 human with the same identity making it confusing.

No because people are bad and pollute. And i don't anymore sisters but anyways no it would be bad because there is already more than enough people in the world so why would i wanna make more and that means there could be more Kim Jong Un's and we don't want that.
JonCarl
JonCarl 
yes, because we could use all of the clones for our military in my opinion. But no then the worlds population would become bigger and the world would be more crowded.

Cloning Humans
Cloning Humans
I believe that cloning humans wouldn't be beneficial to our society because cloning could overpopulate, confuse and may cut us off from actual emotions. For example, what if scientists decided to create too many people.

No because there are already so many humans and i think that it would cause more people to live in poverty because they would clone all the better workers so then the companies wouldn't let the not so good workers have jobs.

 cloning could be used In the medical field, cloning is used to find out about many genes that cause diseases or if you need a part or even blood . IT  WOULD  BE BENEFICIAL

Both in the physical and the digital world, more and more is done by robots and AI's. Be amazed by what they already can do and surprised by what they will be doing in the near future. Robots in the workplace
Robots are designed to make a person's tasks easier, more efficient, less time-consuming and safer. This is especially true for the robots that take over in the work place. What about the Fleet Cleaner robot for ships, the robots taking over in the hospitality industry, the continuously improving conveyer belt technology in Japan, the Telerobot remote-controlled police assistant, the traffic control robot in Kinshasa, the Farmbot perfecting your crops, the Swagbot that herds your cattle, the Veebot that draws your blood, the bot that delivers take-out to your door and the dozens of small robots that help sorting the packages in a warehouse?!
Robots at home
If you think robots are too expensive to have in your own house, think again. There are more and more models that are aimed at the consumer's market. Check out these friendly bots that help you manage your household: Robit, Aido and Kuri. And if you hate folding your laundry, use the Foldimate.
Humanoids vs cyborgs
Where humanoids are robots with human characteristics or form, cyborgs are humans with restored or enhanced abilities thanks to artificial components.
Humanoids
It makes sense that if you can want a machine to interact with humans and take over from a human, you create a robot that has human characteristics and abilities, something people can relate and get accustomed to. After all, communicating with a machine is hard enough, let alone if it looks like a box with some wires attached. Good thing, we've seen a lot of them.

Take the Jia Jia robot for example, this realistic and witty robot is the future for the hospitality industry. But also the Valkyrie robot that might one day end up in a space mission to Mars, the Yamaha Motobot which can actually drive a motor cycle, the Hitchbot which travels around Canada, the Atlas robot by Boston Dynamics that can walk and correct its stride like a human, this amazing skeleton robot with electric-powered muscles and don't forget this interactive robot that helps children with autism.
Cyborgs
Sadly, so far, we haven't come across a lot of video examples of cyborgs. But then again, cyborgs are mostly an invention of the science-fiction industry and not a reality (yet?). I do want you to check out this video from Duoskin, which shows how on-skin interfaces might give us easy control over our electronic devices. And second, this clip by BionX Medical Technology about the Empower Ankle, an innovative leg prosthetic.
Biomimicry in robots
Not just humans, also animals and animal behavior has been studied as an inspiration to create robots. How do animals move, and how can that movement be copied with technology? There are quite some amazing robotic animals out there, that more or less look, jump, fly and move like the real thing: bats, bees, birds, cheetahs, dogs, horses, kangaroos, octopi and even termites. Many of which are from the hands of the brilliant engineers at Boston Dynamics.
Weak AI vs Strong AI
Two types of artificial intelligence can be discerned: weak artificial intelligence and strong Traffic control robots artificial intelligence. Where machines with weak (or narrow) AI focus on applying intelligence to one specific problem, without the presence of self-consciousness, machines with strong AI have a certain self-consciousness and their intelligence can be applied to a variety of 'problems'.

The public opinion is that real strong artificial intelligence hasn't been achieved yet, as that would mean that a machine's intellectual capability is functionally equal to a human's. However, in the following we'll make the distinction between machines/software that are made for a specific tasks and machines/software that appear to have a consciousness.
Examples and talks on weak AI
Two of the buzzwords nowadays are chatbots and AI assistants. Think for example of all the bots being added to Facebook Messenger. 1-800-FLOWERSfor example, makes ordering flowers online even easier or the DoNotPay Bot made by Joshua Browder to help people get rid of their parking tickets.

On the other side you have AI assistants, of which the most famous, Apple's Siri, has now been surpassed by Viv. In general they make your live easier while driving ( Dashbot) or while planning a citytrip, while looking for the right patients for your clinical trial ( Deep6AI) or while drawing ( Google's AutoDraw)!
Examples and talks on strong AI
As we don't have concrete example of strong artificial intelligence yet, we'd like to share three talks from robotics experts who digged deep into the subjects of artificial intelligence, deep learning, machine learning and ethics:

Neil Jacobstein (Singularity University) discusses the benefits of artificial intelligence and why humans are still better at asking the right questions than robots.

Andrew Smart (author Beyond Zero and One) gives you a short insight into his book on machine consciousness and shares his thoughts to the question 'can robots trip on acid?'

Nell Watson (Singularity University) discusses machine intelligence, AI philosophy and how ethics should be taught to machines.

Educating, entertaining and just plain silly robots
Right about now, you've already got a clear image of what robots can do and what they might be able to do in the future. But we wouldn't be The Innovation Station, if we didn't give you a little bit more. So, take a few minutes and go through some more videos on robots taking on sword masters, dinos interacting with kids, cars turning into robots, the world's first robot acting as an art critic, a robot driving a bike and silly robots build by (non)engineer Simone Giertz.
Must watch
If you really can't have enough of robots and talks about artificial intelligence, we recommend you to continue watching these clips:

The Future of Robotics - an excellent panel discussion about robotics with representatives from BMW, Ekso Bionics, 3D Robotics and iRobot;

Humans need not apply - a shortdoc about the impact of automatization on the human workforce;

The hunt for AI - a short clip about two robots creating their own language through interaction from the documentary The Hunt for AI by the BBC.

no because we would be adding on more people to a world that is already over populated

no because in this world the population is to large and we will run out of water

EVAN PRESSLEY

# data[].attributes.body
yes because instead of people we could send clones into war

# data[].attributes.body
It all depends on who you are cloning and what they were or are like

# data[].attributes.body
No, because if we clone ourselves we would have the same personality and the same thoughts. That would be boring. Plus, there is one of us in the world, so why
duplicate yourself when there is only suppose to be ONE of you! Also, it would increase the daily supplies that you need such as, food, water, clothing, etc. (And I don't think that we have the technology yet to clone ourselves)

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that cloning humans would not be beneficial to our society because each colon's could be different from every time you colon something.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel cloning humans would not be beneficial to our society because your clone did something bad you could get blame for it because you would look the same

# data[].attributes.body
I think people shouldn't be cloned because its messing with the elements of life and death.... and yeah

# data[].attributes.body
we can send robot into war instead of real

# data[].attributes.body
No because cloning a human makes life more difficult.

# data[].attributes.body
yeah I guess because we can use the clones to do our work

# data[].attributes.body
yes because it would be cool

# data[].attributes.body
no because our population is already big enough

# data[].attributes.body
No because everyone would make the same decissions, and they could be bad decissions. Also there would be no more unique ideas anymore.

# data[].attributes.body
it would be cool, i think it would with the population.

# data[].attributes.body
no it would whave a huge populashon that need food and water

# data[].attributes.body
I do think cloning humans is beneficial because if we were to clone humans then we as a nation are able to advance more studies and make futuristic thing such as hover cars, hover shoes, advanced medicine and many more.

# data[].attributes.headline
yes becuse we could send clones into war enstead of acual people

# data[].attributes.subject
yes becuse we could send clones into war enstead of acual people

# data[].attributes.body
I personally feel like cloning humans wouldn't be beneficial to the human race I feel like it would take apart in the over population and create more waste that can harm our ecosystem faster then we are harming it now. I think that many people believe that it would be beneficial to the population because they are thinking about their personal lives and how it would help them but you also have to think about the over all affected on the planet, ecosystem, and control of all of the countries and governments around the world. Also if we made the clones do our work they would turn on use like slaves have over the last thousands of years, they would be real people like us therefor we would have the same emotions as us.

# data[].attributes.body
No cloning humans would not be beneficial because there won't be enough room and resource on earth to support life if the human race keeps growing in numbers.

# data[].attributes.body
no because there is already to many people in the world and if we all clone then the the population will be super high and we will struggle with food,water, shelter etc.

# data[].attributes.body
It is good because if a person were really fit then they could be cloned.

# data[].attributes.body
yes becuase it would be nice to have more of you

# data[].attributes.body
No because, cloning a human means life would be more difficult

# data[].attributes.headline
no because ur clone could do something bad and you get blamed for it cause yall look the same

# data[].attributes.subject
no because ur clone could do something bad and you get blamed for it cause yall look the same

# data[].attributes.body
I think it would not because first it is not possible right now also what if goes to the wrong hands (IsIs)

# data[].attributes.body
no because there would be some of the same person that we will not know who the real person is

# data[].attributes.body
no because it could overpopulate if we get carried away or have pollution or also what if something goes wrong with the cloning it can mess up everything.

# data[].attributes.body
I think cloneing could be bad and good. On one hand we could clone an army and use the clones for war, but they might be all like we dont want to be cloned just for war we are living thigs and they might rebel and then the population would grow

# data[].attributes.body
no because cloning humans increase todays issues and over populate which would  leave us with limited supplies

# data[].attributes.body
I will say no because we would have way to many people and there would be not a lot of food for every one.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that humans being cloned can be beneficial to our society somewhat but i do believe that not having people cloned is better because it can cause air pollution and over population and other effects.

# data[].attributes.body
I think they should stop cloning humans because we already have enough humans in the world.

# data[].attributes.body
no. there is enough people in the world and all the earth needs is more pollution

# data[].attributes.body
No,this would end bad people would start to mistake you for your clone for everything like your birthday people would celebrate the clone and not you or if someone wanted to kill the clone they might kill you.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that we should be able to clone humans cause we could take all the really smart people and get rid of the dumb.

# data[].attributes.body
I do not think HUMANS would have good results cloning people due to overpopulation but I do think certain ANIMALS would benefit from getting cloned.

# data[].attributes.body
no thank you because it's going the laws of nashar as well as there are to many falus and would we even be called human at the end and there no point for doing it any wash as well won't the planet be over felled.

# data[].attributes.body
i don't think we should clone humans because i feel like the population would get too large.

# data[].attributes.body
no bc there's this thing called reproduction and you don't need to clone no one

# data[].attributes.body
In some cases it could be a good idea because if a person were really fit, then they could be cloned and used to be army soldiers.

# data[].attributes.body
There are already enough people in the world, but you could make a clone of yourself to do something you don't want to do at the moment.

# data[].attributes.body
No. We would over populate.

# data[].attributes.body
No, I think that it would just increase today's issues. For example, it would increase air pollution because more people would be driving cars adding to the pollution.

# data[].attributes.body
Certain people could be cloned to help society.

# data[].attributes.body
we would have more workeres or soldiers

# data[].attributes.body
No i don't think humans should have all that power.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like cloning humans could be beneficial to our society. Like if we had three Gandhis in the world would be very good.

# data[].attributes.body
No. The world already has enough people. The population is large enough. We just don't need the people added to our big population.

# data[].attributes.body
no thats just weird because they finna be like somebody else

# data[].attributes.body
no because it would increase the population and there is already over 7 billion people

# data[].attributes.body
we can have more people to help

And i want a Clone Army

so if we could clone than we could fit in with our enemy and take them down

NO the human population is large enough we don't need to have more and also there should only be one of you.

# data[].attributes.subject
NO the human population is large enough we don't need to have more and also there should only be one of you.

# data[].attributes.body
I think cloning can be good, as long as we clone the right people. Like, we can clone a ton if smart people, but no people like the person who sits in front of me.This would result in a greater human race and we might be able to protect our planet from destruction stupid people cause.

# data[].attributes.body
No because there are enough people already. Clones would just make the world more crowded.

# data[].attributes.body
I think we don't need anymore clones because other countries are already overpopulated and there wouldn't be anywhere to go.

# data[].attributes.headline
I think it depends on what you are doing it for. I could see the miltary using this to produce more soldiers but hile they are doing that, bad people might be making more bad people. Overall though, I dont think it would be beneficial.

Kally

# data[].attributes.headline
No, I think that is not beneficial to our society because first there would be more people to feed and make clothes for and second you need to be yourself and don't let anyone be you and you can't when you have a clone

# data[].attributes.subject
No, I think that is not beneficial to our society because first there would be more people to feed and make clothes for and second you need to be yourself and don't let anyone be you and you can't when you have a clone

# data[].attributes.body
No. It isn't really needed... we're just fine... so yeah.

# data[].attributes.body
I think depending on who you clone it could be good or bad. If you clone an intelligent scientist, it could save the world! If you clone a super villian, it's not going to be pretty.

# data[].attributes.body
At this current pont, I'd say no. Too many kinks and stuff to have it work out. EVENTUALLY we might be underpopulated and it could help us out in the long run. (Imagine 50 Ghandi's or something)

# data[].attributes.body
i think that cloning people is crazy just as it is, but imagine the things that could go wrong. also we don't need more people like the ones we have.

# data[].attributes.body
It could be cool because you get to customize people.

SOMEONE THAT IS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE ROOM

SOMEONE THAT IS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE ROOM

# data[].attributes.body
no because no one will know who the real one is

# data[].attributes.body
It is not natural to do this. You always see in movies how these type of things turn out. It's not good. Everyone should have the right to be them self with no one else looking, acting, or thinking the same way.  The earth is already becoming overpopulated so cloning is not something that would be beneficial to this. Not only would it affect the world physically, but mentally.

# data[].attributes.headline
I think it depends on what type of person you are,if you don't like school then you could make your clone go to school for you.

# data[].attributes.subject
I think it depends on what type of person you are,if you don't like school then you could make your clone go to school for you.

# data[].attributes.body
But it also could be bad because bad people could clone there self to make more bad people. Jacob J

# data[].attributes.headline
No, there is only meant to be one of you and one of everyone else not More than one.

# data[].attributes.subject
No, there is only meant to be one of you and one of everyone else not More than one.

# data[].attributes.body
Mark

# data[].attributes.body
No, never. The human population is already large enough, we should focus more on trying to revive extinct species and helping to keep almost extinct species alive and well

# data[].attributes.body
There are already a lot of people on Earth, we don't need more. There's really not a good or bad reason to clone or not clone people. It's just not needed. Cloning food however (synthetic meat and vegetables) could be beneficial.

# data[].attributes.body
i feel like it would not be beneficial because we already have enought polluton in the world and if we add more people there would be more polluton.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that clones are not the best idea. They could steal other clones' identities, and crime might go up because if a clone robbed a store or committed some other crime, it could lead to other clones being framed. Plus air pollution would go up and the amount of food may go down because of the larger, cloned population.

# data[].attributes.body
it would increase our work effort if we can clone peps too do da work

# data[].attributes.body
Sometimes cloning more scientist would be great but cloning a dog or just a random person would be useless.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe cloning humans could be beneficial, because if you can clone a human you can clone healthy DNA to try to bring back extinct species by fixing the dna in them that may have caused them to die off in the first place.

# data[].attributes.body
i don't think so because we already have enough people and not all of them are good and i don't think that we need anymore

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that cloning humans can be both beneficial and harmful to our society. The reason why I say that it is beneficial is because we will be able to have more human beings. This can result in more educated/literate people and more workers. However, I also say that it is harmful because cloning is extremely costly, and it may not even work out. Your clone could also turn on you.

# data[].attributes.body
no, it would boost the population causing people to eventually run out of space to live

# data[].attributes.body
no. there would just be many versions of the same people causing overpopulation.

# data[].attributes.body
WHY NOT? Really. Why not? It'd most likely be beneficial because it would raise GDP per capita since there's more people to work. Imagine a second Bill Gates just runnin around. M i l l i o n s. ALSO it's cool.
-Ceres

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like cloning would not be beneficial. If we clone people that would raise the population, causing more pollution. We also dont know how the clones would act. They could be physcopaths. Its just not a good idea to clone in general.

# data[].attributes.body
No because the more people there is the more people we have to support. Some food supply such as cow, pig, and chicken may go extinct because of how many people we have to feed. We also won't be able to identify each other if there is many of the same people.

# data[].attributes.body
no, because there would be more bad people that we don't need, but there is probably someone who is cloned already.

# data[].attributes.body
if we cloned the people we hate them that would be awful and then we might never get to have you know what because there will already be too many people. and if we cloned all the people we like then we'll get tired of them

# data[].attributes.body
No because if we were to clone humans and there were clones of a bunch of people, a bunch of people would look alike and that's boring and people would get mixed up and they could impersonate each other. And also if we were to clone people and then one person committed a crime, you wouldn't know who did the crime. same thing for animals but animals cant commit crimes

# data[].attributes.body
No! Cloning is very unnatural. We have enough people being birthed on this planet naturally as it is. Plus if you think about it, I don't think we would want multiples of people we personally know and even celebrities. That would be too much.

# data[].attributes.body
this is crazy we have twins for a reason we don't need two of SOME people, we wouldn't survive

# data[].attributes.body
No because the clones would be treated as second class citizens and be outcasts. Instead of descrimination against a group of people clones would be treated like garbage. We would have more workers these people would still need food so cloning on a large scale could lead to famine and overpopulation.
