Lab grown meat already exists. The same processes could easily make human meat without harming the human.

I'm fairly certain this will at some point lead to a social media fad of people trying, well, people. It seems like every possible stupid action has already been turned into one at this point https://eu.app.com/story/news/world/2024/03/07/what-is-tiktok-chroming-trend/72879475007/

Onlyfans creators already sell stuff like toenail clippings and bathwater https://kotaku.com/belle-delphine-onlyfans-paypal-pornhub-bath-water-1851491916

Wouldn't be difficult to imagine people buying meat made of their favourite creator. What they do with it is between them and their god.

So you kind of miss the obvious long term application in this scenario: buy a totally realistic dildo clone of my penis, buy a clone of my boobs etc. A step beyond just meat but the more realistic application of this technology in the sex world.

I think they'll be eating their favourite onlyfans creators, just not in the way you're suggesting.

And how do you keep that from deteriorating and decaying? It would be meat after all and meat has the nasty property to get really bad in very short time without a living body attached to it keeping it fresh.

Well planned obsolescence is a good thing for the content maker - the customer has to buy it again if they like it. The ultimate DRM?

Okay, if you phrase it that way then it is a feature not a bug ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜„

Wait, would my dildo clone have a foreskin? Would the fake be more real than the real thing?

Yea, I hit on that same thought later in another comment.
