A “synthetic womb” is what is lately on the agenda of tech billionaires around the globe as they seek out a ways to set aside natural birth entirely. A look into a mind of these individuals do reveal quite curious stances.

Possibility of replacing natural birth with synthetic wombs is a matter of discussion among several prominent tech entrepreneurs arguing that such technology would remove the “burden” of pregnancy and allow women to work more. 

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk’s fellow tech leaders came up with one solution for declining birth rates, after Muskwarned on Tuesday that society “should be much more worried about population collapse.”

“We should be investing in technology that makes having kids much faster/easier/cheaper/more accessible… Synthetic wombs, etc,” proposed Sahil Lavingia, the founder of digital product trading platform Gumroad.

Co-founder of cryptocurrency Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin agreed, arguing that if the “burden of pregnancy” was replaced with synthetic wombs, then women would be able to continue working.

Huxley’s BRAVE NEW WORLD, for real! Babies were grown in test tubes. The very word Mother was obscene, and printed as M——r.

In the year 5555
Your arms hangin’ limp at your sides
Your legs got nothin’ to do
Some machine’s doin’ that for you
In the year 6565
You won’t need no husband, won’t need no wife
You’ll pick your son, pick your daughter too
From the bottom of a long glass tube

Lesbians and gay guys...need I say more? All of those unused IVF embryos. Genetic manipulations, gene splicing, evolution in action. That is not the kind of power humanity should control.
