Would you support artificial wombs as an alternate way of reproduction?

I would

I would but not personally use it

I wouldn't

I feel it in my bones that this shit is going to be exploited/taken advantage of in more than 1 way. I already thought of 5 ways. Even if there are strict regulations, for some reason whenever money is in the picture, those regulations seem to immediately stop being taken into account.

[Nirmroth]

Sounds like a good idea for infertile or single parents/men who want kids.

Even possibilities for space travel or controlling population but thats science fiction.

[Levin]

I would assume the child is in some kind of loving symbiosis with the mother in the womb.

All this artificial stuff sounds horrific and dystopian.

[RebelinSteel]

No, it is something that should be banned. It will be exploited in the future to provide countries cannon fodder.

[Nirmroth]

I think the times are leaning more and more towards drone warfare as evident with the current ukraine-russia conflict.

[RebelinSteel]

@Nirmroth you still need a lot of people.

[Nirmroth]

Ye but creating super soldiers from artificial wombs is still very very science fiction.

Until itreached the science and ethic shift in society to be used on an Industrial standard, it will be long obsolete by much cheaper drones that can be mass produced while a human needs around 21-25 years to reach its prime.

[RebelinSteel]

@Nirmroth no one mentioned super soldiers, just fodder, literally bodies that have no families.
Drones are limited technology.

[Nirmroth]

I would still consider them super soldiers as they would likely be trained pretty early and picked based on genetics.

And again drones are limited but can be produced were still talking about humans here that take around 21 years to ripe.

is much more likely to happen.

I would, any way of helping infertile people have children has big support from me.

[SotiCoto]

At least I probably wouldn't be arrested for punching an artificial womb enough to cause miscarriage.

[In_Trance]

Nobody is supporting this.
