Altered Carbon has something like that as a concept. A person who must be on two places at the same time and spawns a copy.

Surprisingly enough, I found SOMA's approach is more profound than Altered Carbon's. SOMA really delves into what makes you you, and what happens when there two yous.

  • Mainly it means somebody else can spend your money and can get you in trouble you can never get out of.

    Imagining the other is yourself, and not just somebody else with all your memories who looks like you (whether you are the original or the copy) is the first mistake everybody makes, thinking about it.
