    Oh good, everyone just hates sex. Glad we’re finally doing something about it.

      Sounds like one use-case of for same-sex couples to have biological children together. Which is pretty neat IMHO!

      Not to say that the more macabre use cases don’t exist, of course.

      We still need humans for nine months to carry them to term, but I won’t be surprised if there are people looking into a technological “solution” to that.

      It is exactly this. Leave it to Musk, Bezos, and Zuck to read these dystopian novels and think, “Wow, what a beautiful future. Let’s build that!”

      They won’t need AI to replace everybody, just test tube babies cultivated for one specific task: compliance.

    Great, now science just needs to solve the problem of nobody being able to afford raising a child…

      My guess is science has solved that one already. There just is no political will to do that.

      Don’t worry, I’m sure we will get the technology for AI raised billionaire clones at scale soon enough

    It already is and has been for a long time? Usually very expensive and not nearly as much fun though.

    So how far are we from using the Three Seashells and will we be able to afford the Cursing fines to wipe our asses?

    …could pave the way for same-sex couples to have biological children together.

    As usual, it sounds like the technology could be used for genuinely good things.

    It could be used for horrible things too, yes, but that’s often how it goes.
