Brainless clones as organ backups

A startup is pitching the deliberate creation of minimally brained human clones whose bodies would be reserved as living sources of organs or as receptacles for transplanted brains, framed as an extreme life‑extension and medical‑backup strategy. The plan reportedly ties near‑term animal work (monkey 'organ sacks') to a longer roadmap toward human body replacement, and has been presented privately to investors to avoid public backlash. — If pursued, this model forces urgent public debate and regulation about what counts as permissible human experimentation, cross‑border clinical research, and limits on creating sentience‑minimized humans for instrumental use.
