http://www.w24.co.za/Wellness/Mind/shou ... d-20160907What about ethics?
Experts disagree on whether machines and humans will ever be able to be in relationships. Some, like Richardson remain firm in thinking that robots will never be able to replace healthy human interaction, which is why she’s heading up the Campaign Against Sex Robots.
But Richardson might be too generous in assuming what people want.
There are many dysfunctional, abusive, isolationists out there, who might be perfectly happy with an inanimate, obedient, pleasure machine. Take writer, and owner of a RealDoll, David Mills. In an interview with Vanity Fair he comfortably states that while he “loves” women – “especially their legs” he doesn’t like “being around people”.
And then there are futurologists like Ian Pearson who believes that robots will develop emotional and sexual intelligence. In an interview with Inverse he reckons that by 2050 more than half of us will have a sex robot.
One can only hope that someone will be championing for the rights of those artificially intelligent models, locked away in basements all over the world.

Hey, I want a sex bot, if I can't get to convince a hoomin to get it on with me, I need a bot.

As long as they don't wear burkhas in public, I don't see a problem.One can only hope that someone will be championing for the rights of those artificially intelligent models, locked away in basements all over the world.

Re: Campaign Against Sex Robots
Surely we need a new academic discipline, Sexbotics®?
"A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm without the explicit permission of the human, and an agreed safe word."
