Will we end up dating life-like robots???

For maybe a few but not the majority

Is the dildo idea sexist against men? It has been around way before these dolls.

And there are already boyfriend dolls too.

^^ You know what's funnier? The two hosted ladies look exactly like those dolls!

What are you talking about?

I was referring to his comment about rape accusations, nagging women and raising someone else's kid

If people want to have sex with robots it's their choice I hold no judgements

I agree that people can go ahead and stick it in a robot if they want - or a robot in them.. but I'm still gonna judge. Creeeeeepy!

*shrug* I dunno.. dildos and all that, not my thing but it's not so creepy.. but a full humanoid replica? Maybe it's simply because it's something new/different/"scary" but I can't help but think the idea is creepy central and there's no way I'd do one out of curiousity or anything of the sort.

There is this psychological thing where the more realistic something looks the more creepy it becomes until it looks real enough to be a human

You guys aren't thinking, this could be a good alternative to people who have STDs and HIV and don't want to transmit to anyone. Condoms really aren't that great with preventing diseases.

Uh, yes we are. Don't accuse us of not thinking.

Jerking off to porn is infinitely less creepy.

I don't know, some comments have me question. I'm not singling you out, just making a light-hearted joke.

What if people bought like second hand robots or shared them

Unlikely. Do a lot of guys share flesh light, I don't think so.

Do you really think Id know the answer to that hahaha

Given the topic, readers may find the following relevant:

IEEE recently announced a major initiative related to ethics in AI and autonomous systems.
http://beyondstandards.ieee.org/general-news/artificial-intelligence-today-join-conversation/

The document found by following the link there includes information about a new committee being formed on affective computing. The summary for the committee states that "This Committee addresses the impact on individuals and society that autonomous systems capable of sensing, modeling, or exhibiting affective behavior such as emotions, moods, attitudes, and personality can produce. Affective computational and robotic artifacts have or are currently being developed for use in areas as diverse as companions, health, rehabilitation, elder and childcare, training and fitness, entertainment, and even intimacy. The ethical concerns surrounding human attachment and the overall impact on the social fabric may be profound and it is crucial that we understand the trajectories that affective autonomous systems may lead us on to best provide solutions that increase human well-being in line
with innovation."

Subcommittee 3 is "When systems become intimate. Addresses intimacy and relations with machines. Issue: Concern exists for any efforts to develop intimate robots that will contribute to gender inequalities in society. Also, concern with respect to potential therapeutic use of intimate robots, e.g., recidivism in sex offenders—can this technology assist?"

While you debate whether or not this will happen I'm currently seeking a replacement Cherry 2000.



Fun note: This movie is set in the year 2017

i think we may soon need to whip up an internet "law" akin to godwin's law, but with trump, the way things are going here.
