Only a Technocrat would think this is a good idea, but only if the government would pay the tab with taxpayer funding. In Huxley’s 1932 book that modeled Technocracy, Brave New World, all children were incubated in artificial wombs; women were forbidden to get pregnant or parent children. Their bodies were available to any male, and love was forbidden. ⁃ Patrick Wood, Editor.
There’s a robot for that.
What a time to be alive — people are marrying AI bots, and now robots might soon be able to carry babies.
Reportedly, China is working on designing a bot with an artificial womb — which will receive nutrients through a hose in its abdomen — that will soon be able to carry a fetus for about 10 months before giving birth, according to Chosun Biz.
The “pregnancy robot” was conceptualized by Dr. Zhang Qifeng, founder of Kaiwa Technology in Guangzhou, China. If all goes according to plan, the prototype will make its debut next year.
For those struggling to conceive, hiring a humanoid to carry their baby will cost 100,000 yuan, or about $14,000 — a price significantly less than a human surrogate, which can cost someone in the US anywhere from $100,000 to $200,000.
