Add this to the list of worthless projects that are attracting a lot of funding from people who have more money than sense: the creation of AI sensient beings and missions to the Moon and Mars. $15 million bucks of initial investment dollars to bring back woolly mammoths from extinction. Why, why, why? You could feed a lot of people with $15 million. Of course, no worries about unintended consequences. Why no, it's a massive ego project, done because they can. WTF.
Maybe they're good as BBQ |

The billionaires could feed every human on the planet and not even feel it.
