A female economist has published a surprisingly positive, if offbeat prediction concerning the effects of sex robots on society, and in particular marriage. MGTOWs (Men Go Their Own Way) hail the advent of sex robots as freeing men from the need to marry to have regular sex. Feminists seem to fear sexbots for that very… Read more »
One of the leading Chinese sex doll companies (DS Dolls), which is already making ‘smart sex dolls’, has announced its intention to 3D print sex doll/robot replicas of any woman. This is something I’ve been predicting here for a while. With 3D scanning technology exploding, it was/is only a matter of time before ‘realistic sex… Read more »
“To give a man 5 sous because he is poor and has no bread is perfect, but to give him a blowjob because he has no girlfriend is too much of a good thing: you don’t have to do that.” ― Michel Houellebecq In the light of the awful act of terrorism by self-proclaimed ‘incel’… Read more »
Interesting video featuring Dr Sergei Santos of Synthea Amatus, pretty much leading on from the media story I posted yesterday in which he claims that his sex robot creation saved his marriage.
Dr Sergie Santos is the Barcelona based sex doll maker who could be described as trying to produce the European answer to Harmony of RealBotix/RealDoll/Matt McMullen. The ‘sex robot’ that Sergei is creating goes by the name of Samantha, although rival McMullen has dismissed it/her as nothing but ‘a toy’. The tabloid Daily Mail carries… Read more »
Another interesting video from the top MGTOW (men go their own way) on YouTube – Sandman. In this video, he talks about virtual girlfriends, again referring to an idea I’ve made here, that the most popular form of sex dolls/sex robots will soon be ‘AR sex dolls’. These will be rather generic sex dolls (or… Read more »
From what we’ve seen in recent weeks of the near finished product that is Harmony, it seems fair to say that creator Matt McMullen’s claim that her sexbot rivals are mere ‘toys’ in comparison is not mere hubris. The dawn of the sex robot age is truly upon us, and Harmony – when she goes… Read more »
‘The Sex Robots Are Coming’ screened last night on UK terrestrial ‘channel 4’ and I have to say, it was on the whole rather good. Most of it was balanced and the entire documentary focused mainly on a sympathetic profile of a somewhat elderly doll lover called James, interspersed with illuminating ‘behind the scenes’ insights… Read more »
Another new word to add to the future sex tech lexicon – ‘digisexual’. It seems to have been coined by some academic ‘ethics experts’ at a Canadian university and refers to what they see as the inevitable rise of a new sexual class who will obtain sexual satisfaction predominantly in the virtual world (which apparently… Read more »
Some of the most intelligent defences of the right to own sex robots, this YouTuber compares the current anti-sexbot arguments with ‘thought crimes’. At around the 8 minute mark of the second video, he puts forth a prediction that I’ve made here before regarding the likely near future of ‘sexbots’. If virtual reality is combined… Read more »
Short video showing some footage of ‘Samantha’, the first commercial sex robot to go on sale in the UK, as well as interesting background on the growing sexbot debate. Meanwhile it’s been claimed that Samantha was molested and ‘left broken’ by overexcited fans at an electronics show in Austria last week. http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/uk-world-news/xxxx-sex-robot-much-cost-13690886
At the start of this year, the third ‘International Conference on Future Robot Technologies‘ took place in London – also known as the sexbot conference. It had actually intended to be held in Malaysia a few months before, but was forcibly cancelled by the Conservative Muslim authorities there. The man behind the conference was David… Read more »
An absorbing, and for the most part plausible case for love and sex with robots. The book is tremendously well researched – even to the point sometimes of being a little dry and academic. For example, when trying to pressgang the reader with a barrage of statistics into recognising the sanity of those who love… Read more »
Dr Kevin Curren is a reader in Computer Science at Ulster University and senior member of the IEEE, providing comment on trends in technology. Recently he gave an interview in which he discussed how robots would integrate into human society, including their roles as sexbots. Q:You’ve talked previously about the inevitability of sex robots. What… Read more »
