Indian media: Chinese scientists are developing the world's first "Pregnancy Robot" capable of carrying human pregnancy to full term.
This technology was developed by a tech company in Guangzhou, China. It is expected to launch a prototype in 2026, with a price of about 100,000 RMB. This artificial womb simulates the human uterine environment, allowing the fetus to grow in synthetic amniotic fluid, and delivers nutrition and oxygen through a pipeline similar to the umbilical cord.
It may bring hope to 15% of infertile couples around the world, but it also raises ethical concerns, such as the emotional bond between the baby and the parents, the source of reproductive cells, and the impact on the child's mental health.
