Towards the cultivation of humans.

Researchers from the china institute of biomedical engineering and technology have designed an artificial intelligence system for gestation outside the womb and at the same time this system can care for the embryos as they develop into fetuses.

The system can detect any changes that occur in the embryo and adjust the supply of oxygen and nutrients according to its status. In addition, the system can even classify embryos according to their health and development potential, in case an embryo has a significant defect or dies, the program notifies the maintenance technician to remove it from the artificial uterus.

According to the researchers this artificial womb that they have engineered for the safe growth of embryos and acts as a robotic nanny that watches over them, the researchers say the invention could be a breakthrough for the future of motherhood in China, which is currently faces the lowest birth rates in recent decades.

Although it is good to remember that in China there are 1400 two million inhabitants, almost 1 out of every 6 inhabitants of the earth lives in China, in addition the researchers affirmed that in the future this technology, to point this out, they said verbatim “that this technology It could free women from having to go through pregnancy by allowing the fetus to grow safely outside its mother's body."

I don't know what you think about this artificial uterus, capable of preventing pregnancy in women, and they warn that currently the method can only be applied to raising animals, since current international legislation prohibits carrying out these experimental tests on human embryos, even thus the investigation of the following stages of gestation is very important because according to researchers there are many unsolved mysteries about the physiology of human embryonic development.

A lot of controversy is being created on this issue, because in January there was a debate raised by Elon Musk who is concerned about a supposed "collapse" of the population due to the fall in the birth rate, collapse in quotes very in quotes because the fall in the birth rate is in some countries such as European countries but there are others such as African countries whose birth rate is soaring and in some cases crazy.

The point is that Elon Musk is worried about this drop in the birth rate and in the debate he had launched on social networks he said things like, "that if there are not enough people for the earth there will definitely not be enough for Mars".

I don't understand the question, if you expect Tuesday to be the solution to a housing or population problem on Earth, because it encourages birth rates, and Mars is also a small planet with scarce resources.

Vitalik Buterin, who is the inventor of the Ethereum crypt currency, joined the controversy, since he suggested creating precisely what Chinese researchers have developed, in January he suggested creating synthetic wombs as, according to him, “a solution to have a child faster and cheap”, in addition to reducing the gender wage gap; According to him, "synthetic uteruses would eliminate the high burden of pregnancy, significantly reducing inequality between men and women."

I don't know what you think about this technology, I think that in some cases it can be very positive, for example if the mother has health problems or if the baby or fetus has developmental problems it could be very interesting, but I don't know how focus on a future, it can be a positive future or a dystopian and negative future, we could end up like The Matrix with endless fields where humans are not born but cultivated, I don't know what you think.

Another example of the application of this technology is a case of a mother who died and the doctors managed to keep the fetus alive until it could be born, the woman was clinically dead but the body continued to nourish the baby that was inside her, it was An extreme case, I think it is a milestone in maintaining a living body by artificial means, which in this case is to maintain the life of an embryo.

With these artificial wombs you could practically from the first weeks of gestation, so for some cases it could be useful, but in general these applications could also go in the other direction towards endless fields of human crops, especially if there are people like Vitalik Buterin that they are more concerned in the production of fast and cheap cheap humans and not in the quality of life of the humans that inhabit this planet.
