Significantly aided by computational technology, contemporary society has become increasingly adept at replicating/duplicating products, environments, and exact outcomes of prior experience.
Is this drive to duplicate/replicate products, environments, and outcomes of prior experience (a major motivating force behind industrial manufacturing, chain restaurants/chain stores and science among other examples not considered) at odds with the unique individual and a less predictable reality, or are such ideas as the unique individual and a less predictable reality simply myths perpetuated by less organized and undisciplined members of humanity and that in truth, the drive to successfully duplicate/replicate products, environments, and exact outcomes of prior experience is, like biological reproduction itself, integral to humanity’s continuance?
