Replication Ethics
摘要：
假设某种未来的技术能够使同样的有意识的人类生活重复N次，相同或几乎相同，串行或并行。这是不是大约是启用相同生命一次的N倍，因为每个生命都有价值，价值是累加的？或者说，它的价值大致等同于一次激活生命，因为只有一个生命被激活，尽管是以一种物理上不寻常的方式？这些生命是同时发生的还是相继发生的，这有关系吗？我们认为，这些问题突出了一个迄今被忽视的人口伦理方面，可能成为相关的不一定遥远的未来。
英文摘要：
Suppose some future technology enables the same consciously experienced human life to be repeated, identically or nearly so, N times, in series or in parallel. Is this roughly N times as valuable as enabling the same life once, because each life has value and values are additive? Or is it of roughly equal value as enabling the life once, because only one life is enabled, albeit in a physically unusual way? Does it matter whether the lives are contemporaneous or successive? We argue that these questions highlight a hitherto neglected facet of population ethics that may become relevant in the not necessarily far distant future.
