I am thinking artificial wombs could allow humans to be born later, when their bodies have already matured, and I guess others had the same idea when they thought about growing humans in tubes from eggs to adults, which is optimal birth, and this means that children are a weird consequence of the physical limitations of reproduction, they shouldn't be running around screaming and shitting everywhere, but that is what you get when you take humans out of the oven too early.Altricial birth: Human infants are born underdeveloped (altricial) due to constraints imposed by bipedalism and large brain size. This requires extended postnatal development.
- We need bigger ovens...

Then you just get a full sized human who still doesnt know shit- Then they run around screaming taking adult sized shits everywhere
- Basically apes
- Seems like it could be dangerous tbh, its way easier to teach someone manners when theyre the size of your leg

Artificial womb could be engineered to be more than just bigger, but also better.- Remember how in the matrix kids grow in the matrix?

since such a person would be grown without human contact, I’m guessing the chance of becoming a psychopath would go way upSmiles
I guess- Im supposing whether its gonna happen in our lifetimes, probly not. Im supposing the likelihood of some terrible human ethics violation happening in pursuit of perfecting the goal
- Very likely

Babies go 9 months without human contact (sorta) and they are fine, and besides, human contact broke me, I would have rather been grown in a virtual reality, where humans are not allowed to touch me while I develop.@Willow

growing up isolated can be very bad for your social skills and emotional stability- we humans rely a lot on bonds with other humans

This- There would be no pedophilia ever
- And humans being raised this way dont have to be without some form of mental development
- They could undergo their own simulations to determine which kind of human theyd want to be
- I could also see some form of induced delay of sexual development until it is known what they want to be, which would require some genetic alteration while in sleep mode

no- no
- there was a whole study about this
- infants that go without any sort of real human contact or conditioning often end up developmentally stunted or something else
- Orphanhood in Romania became prevalent as a consequence of the Socialist Republic of Romania's natalist policy under Nicolae Ceaușescu. Its effectiveness led to an increase in birth rates at the expense of adequate family planning and reproductive rights. Its consequences were most felt with the collapse of the regime's social safety net during...

I believe in ai guidance, not having the final say- The final say would go to those with the highest credibilities
- An ai guided meritocracy
- You wouldnt have a say in an industry you were not involved in
- This prevents idiocracy
- But if a decision involves your intustry, you can vote
- And the best representstives of that industry would be elected by you
- There will be several industries
- Ai will give guidance towards optimization
- But it is up to your meritocracy to decide what is best for humanity
- This would all be based off of a resource based economy
- When many things are automated

The matrix was keeping humans in a reality that is neither too good or too bad, which is similar to keeping them like farm animals, the horror aspect of this theoretical future is that we become like the animals we farm, and then there will be different grades of humans, grown in different matrix environments, "grass fed" matrix-grown humans, and the petroleum matrix-grown humans.Humans get to survive within a simulation of a plentiful reality in their own minds and experience decent lives

Purposed organisms- There should be a series of simulations according to stages of development that would determine the best affinities

That is at the individualistic level, there may been individuals who are ok with being cattle as long as they don't know about it, like Cipher, but the Matrix experienced several "The Ones", and each one was born out of the accumulation of subconscious dissatisfaction from the entire human species.Claudia Berdella ‡
which is funny- because as i pointed out in what i wrote
- The matrix portrays the human species kept alive inside of its golden era in order to keep the machines alive, one doesn’t exist without the other in this scenario. But what is so terrible about this? Humans get to survive within a simulation of a plentiful reality in their own minds and experience decent lives as opposed to the scorched earth THEY created to try fighting the machines which they ALSO CREATED. Consider the character of Cipher who, after escaping the Matrix, wants back in to escape the downtrodden reality of what HUMANS turned the real world into— humans made the machines and an uninhabitable surface,

Those who want to remain asleep indefinitely may accumulate into vast numbers, which could translate to excessive demands to maintain nurturing, but that just means that simulations may need to be improved or if they happen to pass an optimal awakening window, they may unfortunately have to be repurposed for providing energy and nutrients to the rest of the nestClaudia Berdella ‡
