China Unveils World’s First Pregnancy-Simulating Humanoid Robot
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com ^ | Aug. 14, 2025 | Robert Semonsen

Posted on 08/14/2025 7:12:30 PM PDT by bitt

Chinese researchers are developing the world’s first humanoid robot capable of simulating pregnancy, with a prototype expected to launch in 2026.

The device, created by Guangzhou-based Kaiwa Technology, features an artificial womb integrated into a robotic abdominal module to replicate the full gestation.

The artificial womb is an advanced incubation pod that mimics the conditions of a uterus and is designed to handle the full human pregnancy cycle, from conception to birth.

Priced below 100,000 yuan, or about $14,000, the robot aims to assist infertile couples and individuals who prefer to avoid biological pregnancy, especially young women who wish to have children.

Kaiwa Technology founder Zhang Qifeng, who earned his PhD from Singapore’s Nanyang Technological University in 2014, announced the project at the 2025 World Robot Conference in Beijing.

The company, established in 2015, has previously produced service and reception robots.

Zhang described the technology as mature, noting that the artificial womb would use amniotic fluid and nutrient hoses to support fetal growth.

The robot builds on existing artificial womb research, including a 2017 experiment at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia where premature lambs grew in a “biobag” filled with synthetic amniotic fluid.

In that study, published in Nature Communications, lambs developed normally over four weeks with nutrients supplied via umbilical cord tubes.

Elon will love this. Apparently there are too few humans! Boy, you wouldn’t know it walking around our cities.

I’m having a hard time buying this: Processing blood gases, food, waste, appropriate supplies of neurotransmitters and hormones... that’s one heck of an artificial placenta.

Sort of a way to get to “Brave New World”.

To leftists, it is not a dystopia, but a blueprint.

Boy, you wouldn’t know it walking around our cities.

People move to cities for jobs and resources (e.g. hospital access). The Netherlands is much more crowded than China. Of course, many of our cities have shrunk over the last 70 years due to crime and racial friction (Chicago, Detroit, Hartford).

More Tofu Dreg bullshit claims from China regarding their “Robotics”.

Do the research.
Talk to people who live there.

China is, among other things, an enormous LIAR.

能骗就骗 (”if you can cheat, then cheat”). It’s a culture of lies and corruption.

Sounds like they can not only carry the baby for you, they can handle that icky coitus stuff for you, too. More time to watch reality shows and TikTok! Thank you, China.

Seriously though, this reminds me of that bit in "Lord of the Rings" where the Nazgul king thought he was invulnerable because a prophesy claimed he could not be killed by any man. So a woman offed him.

I'm thinking of the line "no man of woman borne" from Macbeth. He learned that a Cesarean Section does not keep ones head on your shoulders.

These have been around for thousands of years...they’re called men. I think China already has them and has perfected the outcome long ago.

We’re turning humans into a disposable commodity.

Human 2.0, now with less humanity.

Next robot will be a fetus who’s head will get crushed in a late term abortion, then dismembered limb by torso to be removed from the Parent A womb.

Cool!
