Compared with a year ago, the whole process of artificial reproduction, that is, the artificial uterus, is a breakthrough from zero to one, and everything else is a progress from one to ten.

For example, the egg cell and *** to the fertilized egg, and then to the blastocyst, this used to be able to be realized a long time ago, and IVF is mainly this process, so to speak, this process was quite mature a year ago.

It's just that now it's more progressive, not only to achieve automation and intelligence, but also to be able to cultivate on a large scale.

Then there is the acquisition of egg cells and ***.

A year ago, egg cells were surgically obtained, which was much simpler.

But now, it is obtained by culturing oogoblasts and spermatogonia.

In the former, the route of obtaining egg cells is abnormal, and the number is limited, while the latter does not have such concerns.

To put it simply, a year ago, it was already possible to obtain egg cells and *** for oocyte and spermatogonia culture, and it was even more okay for egg cells and *** to blastocyst, and it was even more okay to say that it was not the last step, and the artificial uterus.

A year ago, many illegal surrogacy methods were actually of the same nature as artificial uteruses.

Of course, surrogacy is illegal and prohibited.

Now, a year later, the artificial uterus technology has been a success.

Hearing Fan Xiaoming say this, Zuo Dajun said with a smile: "Of course, if it is not complicated and simple, then the artificial uterus technology has not been developed long ago, even if it cannot be used in human breeding, it is not a problem at all in the breeding of livestock."

There have been many scientific research teams working on artificial uterus technology, but there has been no progress.

In the case of artificial womb technology, this technology breaks the boundaries of natural reproduction in mammals.

Even if it can't be used on people for a short time due to ethical concerns, it is better to use this technology for the reproduction of livestock and the reproduction of cherished animals.

Just like the giant panda, a national treasure, if you have the artificial uterus technology, you don't have to worry about the giant panda going extinct.

As for the benefits to livestock breeding, it is needless to say.

Bao Qizheng said with a smile: "If the artificial uterus technology had been implemented before, it is estimated that some countries would also legalize it, after all, the ethical issues of the artificial uterus are much smaller than the ethical issues of surrogacy, and people are more likely to accept them."

The legalization of artificial uterine technology is much simpler than the legalization of surrogacy.

Artificial womb technology does not involve any question of the fact mother and the biological mother.

Fan Xiaoming nodded and said: "Yes, the artificial uterus is more acceptable than surrogacy, which can also solve many infertility problems, and it is better than surrogacy, just like we are now, although the population increase plan has not yet been announced, but the preparations are already being made, and the relevant investigations are also being conducted, and people are not too obviously unacceptable to artificial uterus technology."

It is impossible for the population increase plan to be announced and implemented at once, and it needs to be promoted for a long time, and it will be made public after everyone accepts it.

Speaking of which, at most, the population of 4 billion people will be increased at once, and the related supporting facilities will have to be built, and this process will also take time.

It's just now, and it's already doing relevant propaganda intentionally or unintentionally.

Of course, the population increase plan is completely voluntary.

Xu Zhengping sighed: "It is impossible to suddenly make it public, after all, this is the participation of the whole people, although it is completely possible to hand over the child to the society to raise, but we hope that the child's growth can be accompanied by parents."

[At present, it is the most complete and best app for listening to books, integrating 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and it supports offline reading

If it is confirmed that it is handed over to social care, then the child and his parents are also biologically linked, and the social relationship is no longer recognized.

For now, there is no material pressure at all to raise children, and some are only emotionally giving.

Fan Xiaoming thought for a while and said, "With the development of science and technology, I think it is difficult for us to maintain this kind of family relationship now, and I don't know what it will become in the future."

Su Zhe nodded and said, "It's really hard to say, it's not uncommon for men and women to form a family in the future, it is estimated that it will no longer be the mainstream, after all, everyone has no pressure to survive now."

Families have not existed since ancient times.

Human beings were no different from animals in the beginning, just like animals nowadays, there are very few families like humans.

With the light pillar project, coupled with the controlled nuclear fusion technology that is about to be mastered, it can be said that mankind no longer has to worry about eating and drinking.

In this case, starting a family will no longer be a mainstream option.

"Not to mention, that's the case." Xu Zhengping said seriously, "This is not good, I want to put forward opinions with the relevant departments, if the current life of no worries about food and clothing will really make the family no longer the mainstream and destroy the current social model, then let us go backwards, limit the supply of resources and energy, and let us live the life before."

"Yes, yes, it seems to me that this man just can't eat too much." Zuo Dajun nodded again and again and said, "It's like now, with food and drink, you can live a rich life by participating in a job casually, to be honest, such a good day is too easy to come, and everyone will not cherish it, besides, after eating and drinking, you will start tossing and turning, in my opinion, you are too full to eat, I also suggest tightening the investment in resources and energy in life, and it should be restricted, in my opinion, it is still the way to work more and not work hard, and it is appropriate to be a little difficult, otherwise there is no self-motivation."

Fan Xiaoming looked at Zuo Dajun with a smile, and said with a smile: "Dajun, I didn't expect your young mind to be so conservative, we have only lived a good life for a few days, and you shouted that you want to go back, I can understand that the principal has such thoughts, but I can't understand you like this."

The principal's age is there, and it is normal to think like this, but it is very problematic for Zuo Dajun to think like this.

Xu Zhengping explained with a smile: "I don't want the current social model to collapse, but there is no way to stop it with feelings, after all, our productive forces have developed to such a degree, and if we stop it, it is estimated that it will be temporary, and it is really difficult to say what it will look like in the future."

With that, several people left the blastocyst area and walked towards the artificial uterine area.

Zuo Dajun heard Xu Zhengping say this, and said a little indignantly: "If you want to control it, it is difficult to do it, we human beings have always pursued such a worry-free life, and now that we have achieved it, we can't really go backwards, but if we don't go backwards, many of the past will change, even if our generation can still be retained, but our next generation, the next generation probably don't know what it will become."

People work hard and pursue a carefree life.

In the past, due to limited resources and energy, it was basically impossible for everyone to live a carefree life.

At that time, only a very small number of people could live like this.

As of a year ago, only a small fraction of the world's people were able to live affluent lives, and many were below the poverty line.

Of course, this is said on a global scale.

As far as the present is concerned, in the past, where there was no industry, after the implementation of the deindustrialization plan of the earth, these people directly agreed, and after agreeing, these people directly lived a prosperous life from below the poverty line.

Globally, not counting foreign countries, they are basically living a prosperous life now, and even those who are unwilling to do anything can live a well-off life.

It can be said that now there is basically everything you want, all kinds of houses, cars, deposits, etc., and you have almost realized the distribution on demand.

After all, there is now a global agreement to deindustrialize, which means that these people are provided with enough resources and energy to live on these people

A life of affluence.

These people have lived a rich life, and they can't help but let their people live a rich life.

For now, there is no difference in material life.

On the other hand, now that you are looking for a partner, you really look at the talent and the edge, and the era of money like before has become a thing of the past.

This kind of life is the result of everyone's struggle, and now it is really unrealistic to let everyone go back.

Bao Qizheng said seriously: "It's basically impossible to go back, if you haven't experienced this kind of life, it's okay, it's been so long, it's really unrealistic to go back, or it will ruin some of the current ones, I don't think this is what everyone wants to see, so let's look at it, there is no need to worry too much, after all, the family has not always existed, even if it disappears in the long history of mankind, there is nothing strange."

Fan Xiaoming nodded and said: "Many animals do not have the concept of family, not the same life is good, human society has been changing, it is difficult to say how it will be in the future, but it is definitely suitable for the current productivity, we are now because of our rapid development, the social form can be maintained, even if it is estimated that it is our current generation, to our next generation, it is estimated that the family is really not the mainstream of society, I estimate that at that time will maintain the independence of the individual, Even the responsibility for the reproduction of human beings will be pushed to society."

"I guess so." Zuo Dajun said, "Don't forget, with the development of science and technology, people's life expectancy will only get longer and longer, and it is not impossible to achieve immortality.

Right now, the life expectancy of man has been extended to 150 years.

With such rapid development, it is not impossible for people to live for 500 years and 1,000 years, and it is not impossible to achieve immortality when the genetics of human beings are completely analyzed.

In this case, it is really difficult to say what form society will take.

Su Zhe smiled and said: "How will society develop in the future, I estimate that the individual will be the smallest unit of society, not the family, and there will be a lot of changes that we are difficult to think of now, as for these changes in our generation will not be reflected, our next generation is not necessarily, as for the reproduction of human beings, it is estimated that it will be pushed to the society, and the specific situation depends on the actual situation, for example, our propaganda is very important."

Xu Zhengping sighed and said: "We don't have to think about it so much, we just need to ensure that we human beings can survive for a long time, as for what form of society it is, it doesn't matter, but what we should do propaganda or do propaganda, what we should maintain or maintain, we can't be completely laissez-faire, if we really want to do this, human society is estimated to collapse directly soon."

Zuo Dajun thought for a while and said: "Actually, we are not so pessimistic, we can completely influence our next generation, we can create an environment in which we lived in the past, so that our next generation can grow up in such an environment, so that we have the same understanding as us, naturally, they will not be too outrageous, in the final analysis, it is education before adulthood."

Bauchi nodded and said, "We can go down to the virtual universe and build such an environment, and from my point of view, I would prefer to see more diverse values while maintaining mainstream values."

"Take advantage of the virtual universe." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile, "It is indeed feasible to use the virtual universe...... That, do we have to start consciously controlling it now, just like we can't carry out large-scale promotion after the emergence of many technologies, we have to come step by step, which is not good, at this stage, we can't take the initiative to slow down the speed of our development, to be honest, this is really contradictory, this is too tangled."

"Tangled with something! Actually, we have a better way." Zuo Dajun smiled, "Aren't we developing digital life? Hurry up, we speed up the research on digital life, and when digital life is completed, we can create a mirror universe in the virtual universe that replaces human beings with digital life.

"Arm, what you said is a little inexplicable." Fan Xiaoming was a little puzzled, "Could it be that you mean that we humans can enslave these digital lives, and we humans can live the life we want, or that with digital lives to work for us, we humans can regress to the past life."

Zuo Dajun smiled and explained: "That's pretty much what it means, in fact, it's useless for us to think about this, it won't be our generation that will be able to call the shots in a few years, and it's useless to think about it now, if you want me to say whatever, we will cover the entire universe with human beings as our highest goal, as long as we achieve this goal, we human beings will be invincible, as for what the social form will be, it doesn't matter, no matter what, it will always be human beings, and it will always be stronger than those strange intelligent life."

Fan Xiaoming nodded, "This is the truth, increase the population and let the human race spread throughout the universe."
