The Download: brainless human clones and the first uterus kept alive outside a body

A California-based startup, R3 Bio, has revealed plans to create brainless monkey “organ sacks” for medical testing and potentially backup human bodies. In another breakthrough, researchers kept a donated human uterus alive outside the body using a device called “Mother,” raising possibilities for extended womb maintenance and even fetal growth. Additionally, AI data centers are found to significantly warm surrounding areas, while tech stocks face challenges amid the Iran war and legal disputes.
