Does Tuvix Deserve to Die?

A debate on whether Captain Janeway should kill Tuvix, a merged individual formed from Tuvok and Neelix, or let him continue to exist. The podcast explores the ethical dilemma of killing Tuvix to save two others and discusses philosophical perspectives on identity and continuity in relation to teleportation. It also touches on the relevance of embracing authenticity in a world consumed by the digital experience machine and questions the authenticity of our existence in a simulated reality. The speakers engage in a philosophical debate about the moral implications of killing Tuvix as an independent being and discuss the concept of authorship and ownership in creative works.
