No. This is a very stupid and uneducated thing to suggest. Do better.

To be fair, artificial womb technology would really mess with society.

"very stupid and uneducated thing to suggest"

1. Take a common trope in fiction and research for a hundred years. With long known commonly linked ramifications.

2. A company actually starts doing it.

3. Suggest a link

4. -> Call it Stupid.

Yeah. Don't worry about it at all. Nothing to see here.

  • If we wanted to pump out human slaves now, I don't think the main obstacle is that we can't find enough women to bear them.

    • If they are born of woman, they would be human.

      If they are made, we can re-label them as machines and give them lesser rights. And make ourselves feel better about treating them as lower class by some 'justification', like they don't have souls.

      Perhaps some gene editing to give them 'blue' skin, some non-historically-biased-color to identify them.

      Really. There are ton of books with these themes already. I'm not saying anything that hasn't been said, and now a company is doing it, so why am I getting downvoted.
