“This will help you choose the best candidate for your future baby, and we also include a music compilation from the sim, centered this time on a band named after beetles of all things,” the nurse says with a chuckle, handing them a small usb drive.
Not horror, but great writing prompt
Reminds me of Hang the DJ
Okay cool, but why?
To choose the perfect baby. You get to see what person each sperm would turn into if it was the one to fertilize in a randomized environment.
They would “turn into” unremarkable humans. Is the purpose of the simulation to depress the people seeking IVF, or is there a eugenics component involved?
Eugenics, it’s for designer babies. You get about 100 million simulated people from one spank. Out of that, you can pick the longest living, best looking and most successful “sperm”.
So, artificial selection instead of natural selection
Go for it 👍
