While the expert has ties to the manufacturer and it could be a puff piece, it would be interesting.

Would provide a whole new reason for bringing lube to your date.

To be truly real they’d need to be able to say “I’m not into that”. Also. They all look fake.

[hypothetically]

The headline doesn’t even make sense. 5G and the ability for the robot to operate on high speed internet doesn’t in any way affect its aesthetic nor make it look real. It still looks like an expensive baby-doll lol. Daily star is also a trash source for “news” lol

It will never be real enough until they could clone Henry Cavill and brainwash him to do my bidding.

One of the worst things you can say when commenting on sexual performance is that it was robotic. Until romance is bult into this robot, it does not matter how real the act is. I suppose some do not need romance when having sex. but for me. there always needs romance with sex and there has to be a man in roMANce.

This could be good science fiction fodder for the end of humanity. Picture it: erotic robots become so sophisticated and hormonaly assuaging that humans begin to reject each other for intimacy until the human population becomes incapable of reproducing.

 

Of course, there are always exceptions:

I just had a discussion/argument with my gentleman caller today about AI. My position is that it's not all it's cracked up to be because it can't be programmed for unimaginable occurrences that will nevertheless occur and because AI inherently can't compete with human judgment. This seems to me to be a subset of the same thing.

 

Also a functioning cock attached to a human being is far more satisfying than an artificial one.
