Creating sentient life that has even slightly different morals seems like a very morally precarious thing to do without significant thought.
I guess I’m more comfortable with procreation than you are :)
I imposed the “you don’t get to program their DNA in advance” constraint since it seems plausible to me that if you want to create a new colony of actual humans, you don’t have sufficient degrees of human to make them actually human-like but also docile enough.
You could imagine a similar task of “build a rather powerful AI system that is transparent and able to be monitored”, where perhaps ongoing supervision is required, but that’s not an onerous burden.
