In the future, human beings will no longer be born;
instead they’ll be “grown” inside fluid-filled sacks that resemble an artificial
womb. Viable humans even would be picked from fields that are full of
artificial wombs; then we’d arrive to The Matrix world. Plus, even if Neo won’t
need to battle agents and artificial reality within the future, news outlets
thought we inched
closer to this reality with lambs which were nurtured inside
artificial wombs. Some other ones foreshadowed
that
we may completely change the idea of pregnancy. Babies, in the future, may not
be developed inside the mother’s womb, yet inside a “biobag” completely
controlled by technology. What is the assumption here? It’s fairly obvious:
artificial wombs would replace real ones in the future irrespective of any
psychological, physiological, or other consequences. Furthermore, as
technology’s process overtaking healthcare already is on an advanced level,
most hospitals already should feature high-tech laboratories that are full of
artificial wombs. Nope, they don’t!
Artificial
wombs might save the lives of premature babies
I must emphasize that an artificial womb is a great
innovation, even though it still is in the early stages of development.
In the future, therefore, it’ll help to save the lives
of premature babies, which means born prior to 24 weeks, and additionally preventing
them from having long-range medical problems later on. As a premature infant is
born, and air streams inside the lungs, the developmental procedure of maturing
a lung becomes damaged. In keeping them inside an environment such as what the
womb offers (and allowing them to “breathe” fluid), the lung tissue development
may be extended. Plus, as the fluid-filled bag may better mimic life inside the
womb, it may help to prevent infections, oftentimes a prevalent risk in the case
of incubators.
