Mm, but they also just came up with a totally artificial mouse embryo, with a brain and heart (presumably normal and working), not sure how far they let that go.

From the point of view of someone born in the 1960s, we're pretty much living in a science-fiction world as it is, so I wouldn't put much past them. We have things we weren't "supposed" to have for another hundred years, ffs.

It's pretty much just a matter of time and more torture of the truly innocent.

And yes, it's very "Brave New World", where the whole point seems to be the eventual "liberation" of sex from the burden of reproduction. And then eugenics for humans will be A-OK, because there's no point in creating retards in the lab.
