I have enough problems managing myself. I don't see any advantages to doubling the workload.

You mean feed and house more people on a single income and subject those people to this hellscape? No thanks.

Plus, is my clone really going to be fine with acting as a slave? Unlikely.

Everyone keeps tell me to go fuck myself. Inonly need the one copy to live out that wish.

Being able to clone myself and sync with my clones is something I've thought about since I was a kid.

I don't think increasing the number of clones would ever allow me to satisfy all my wishes. The number of things I want to do increases with the number of experiences I have in a non-linear way. If I want to be satisfied I need to be willing to accept all of my wishes will never be fulfilled.

To answer your question specifically: 0 clones

One. Then I can kill myself and let them deal with it all.

Only if the copies are temporary. If they're actual permanent clones, all I've done is create more issues for myself. They gotta eat, and we can't both work, how we gonna file taxes separately?

I’m assuming these copies would also need to eat, sleep, and bathe as well, so there’d be some cost increases as these copies are added into the mix. Just getting extra jobs probably would only go so far before questions started getting asked or somebody noticed, so an army of me working multiple jobs really wouldn’t go well. I’d probably keep it minimal with only one copy, maybe two if I could make it work financially and set up some sort of work rotation so that “I” was only going into work once every few weeks. I might start doing a bunch of freelance design, writing books, gaming and whatever else.

Even better though would be if these were short-term copies that I could just absorb back into myself after a day or whatever and I didn’t have to worry about maintaining their bodies, like Mr. Meeseeks and they just disappear after their task is done. Then I’d just make copies left and right. “Oh shit, I’m out of milk. Copy #3,945,612, go get some milk, thanks.”

2 clones should be good. I can do a lot with 3 of me without complicating much.

As many as my finances can comfortably support

8.6 billion.

Each of my clones would kill one person that was not a clone of me. Then we would all commit suicide.

Climate change is solved. You're welcome. Hopefully the next animal to evolve consciousness does a better job of it.

Here’s a real fun and recent take on this:

Are my clones having fun without me?

Probably one, and I would need to swap the good and the bad parts between us.

2 copies. One for work. One for Personal life. One for spare parts.

But if they have individualism then I will assume a fight will eventually break out.

3 for security, 3 for family, and 3 for wandering.

I think 5 or 6. I'd get to experience living in different cultures without having to abandon friends and family in my current location.

Do the copies require existing matter? If not, I'm making infinite clones to explore the cosmos.

My copies would just unionize.

A lot. It would be quite a few just to fully get into the hobbies I have, and quite a lot more to pursue all the things I'd like to learn.

We're all copies of each other and memory sync isn't that far away. But it comes with ads.
