how much money would you pay for a clone of yourself that didn’t need to eat or sleep and operated at whatever your peak productivity is 100% of the time?

No, it’s ethically wrong. A clone would, presumably, start generating its own memories and experience of objective reality the moment it gained consciousness. A conscious being should choose whatever the fuck it wants to do. And reap the resulting rewards and consequences. Anything else infringes upon consciousnes

ok fair enough, but lets say it's not conscious—was more like a super advanced ai. gpt-27 or whatever. not sentient

I see I have spoiled the fun of the question a little 😂 In that case, I'd look at how much efficiency I might gain (in maintaining and improving biopsychosocial model of health + what kind of return I'd get on wealth generation and maintenance). If the gain is even 1%, and compounds, then that's the starting point
