Let's set up a scenario; You are rich and powerful. Important to the government for one reason or another, may be 20 or 100. Age doesn't matter because when you die you will be reborn, as a clone. Every thought backed up until the exact second of death then loaded into a cloned body. You awake, intact, 17 years old again and after a brief period are allowed to go on with your life. Assume in this scenario souls exist or are believed to.

To who this option was allowed what would the theoretical psychological effects be?

Anything to stop thrill seekers from dying intentionally knowing they could come back?

Larger effect on the world?

And, a bonus question, what if we take an AI and give it true sentience. A human consciousness or as close as it can get, it has an actual soul. Raised in the metal shell through to the point of basic maturity and then put in a clone to give it a human body at last. What do you suppose the psychological effect of going from a vaguely feminine machine to a 17 year girl with retrograde amnesia be? They know what they started as, the big events that happened during still shape them though they cannot exactly recall being a machine.

What would the psychological effects be of being a clone?
