\u2026there is no sound for we all live underground\u2026 now every mother can choose the color of her child, that\u2019s not nature\u2019s way, there\u2019s nothing left to do but pray\u2026\u201d
\nJamiroquai \u201cVirtual Insanity\u201d<\/p>\n

The first month of human embryo development is often referred to as a \u201cblack box\u201d because it is the most mysterious and unexplored period of development of the human being.<\/p>\n

So far, it\u2019s been impossible for researchers to probe those first magical moments, when a spark ignites the transition of a single cell into a complex human being. If only scientists could figure out how it happens, perhaps they could unlock the hidden secrets of life itself, the key to immortality.<\/p>\n

Frustratingly, ethical and moral concerns restrain researchers from experimenting on pregnant women in those first crucial weeks. Usually, a woman doesn\u2019t even know she\u2019s pregnant yet.<\/p>\n

Synthetic embryos could allow research on embryos past the fourteen-day limit now imposed.\u00a0And I can guarantee a\u00a0<\/strong>change in the definition of a human embryo\u00a0<\/a>from a legal perspective is on the agenda. As I\u2019ve always said, hold onto your old dictionaries.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stem cell biologist Jacob Hanna and his team at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel have taken steps toward unraveling this enigma.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Last year, they achieved a groundbreaking feat: growing a\u00a0synthetic human embryo<\/strong>\u00a0in the lab, equivalent to a\u00a014-day-old human embryo<\/strong>, without the involvement of a human sperm or egg cell. This achievement provides a model for better understanding the earliest days of human development and holds promise for growing organs and tissues for transplantation in the future1<\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ah, yes, it\u2019s all for the noble cause of helping those who need transplants. But anyone with half a mind, knows there is more to it than that. Finding that spark of life means unlocking the secret to creating life. It means the possibility of becoming immortal. The possibility of becoming God. It sounds crazy, I know. And it is crazy. The elites are crazy. But then, they always have been. It\u2019s just that now, they have the technology to think they can actually solve this mystery.<\/p>\n

All they need to do is to convince people that it\u2019s okay for researchers to experiment on them in this noble quest. In order to do that, the lines between human and machine, between reality and fantasy, must be blurred until those lines disappear altogether. Humans must believe it is to their advantage to rid themselves of their frail undesirable humanity and live unconstrained in a world of virtual reality.<\/p>\n

For those of us who are old enough to remember a time before these lies were being told, we are not fooled. We represent a threat and the sooner we are done away with, the better. Once we are gone, there will be no one to tell young people stories of what it was like before virtual worlds took over their lives.<\/p>\n

Mark Zuckerberg, along with his tech buddies, want to convince us that we should no longer think of reality and fantasy as two separate worlds, or as the one being true and the other being made-up. They want us to believe that we can have our cake and eat it too. We can live seamlessly in both worlds. All we have to do is allow ourselves to be invaded by AI.<\/p>\n

In a fascinating conversation with Lex Fridman, conducted in the metaverse, with avatars that look realer than reality, Zuckerberg tells us \u201cA lot of people have this phrase where they call the physical world the real world. And I kind of think increasingly, the physical world is super important, but\u00a0<\/em>I actually think the real world is the combination of the physical world and the digital worlds coming together<\/em><\/strong>. But until this technology, they were sort of separate.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
