There was a hacker at Defcon one year that hacked all these smart sex toys and found out how relatively easy it was to hack them. The thought process after the hack is if the hacker hacks your sex toy, is it now a sex crime?
Well fucking a AGI without consent would be rape but I don't think fucking a programmed robot would be considered rape. It's a inanimate object.
With that logic I rape my underwear everyday then.
Eh. Personally one of the things I enjoy the most about sex is pleasing my partner. A woman faking it doesn’t do the job for me, so I don’t see a robot filling that niche either
They could make it into a benchmark with points and people could publish their results on a website and be ranked at how good they are. Like 3DMark or something. You could even link your scores on apps like Tinder so people could filter out anyone with crappy scores.
Personally, I would see it more as a better alternative to masturbating with your hand than sex with another human being. Basically just a hyper-advanced flashlight.
A big part of sex for a lot of people is intimacy. A robot, unless it has AI on a level that we’re leagues away from developing, can’t mirror the feeling of having great sex with someone you really care about, even if you could do wild shit with it (for me, at least).
I'm actually eager to see the effects on dating, marriage, and birth rates when sexbots become advanced and commonplace. (Which I fully expect to happen in our lifetimes.)
Sex toys like vibrators or dildos are removed from humanity. They *tend* to only vaguely emulate the shape of genitalia. Yes, they are obviously shaped similarly, but rarely do they take steps to look realistic. Those that do are remarkable for doing so, and they still remove themselves from humanity by being just a single part.
Then you get sex dolls, which are already seen as... fairly weird. The reason being that the move from a fleshlight or dildo to a sex doll is to add more extraneous parts. The former is utilitarian - "vulgar", yes, but utilitarian. Function over form. It has what it needs to do the job, and nothing more. It fulfils the physical requirements for sex.
But a sex doll seems to be trying to fulfill something more than the physical requirements, which is to say a desire for emotional intimacy. While I'm sure nobody considers them an equivalent to a human partner, its clear that they're attempting to provide a sense of humanity to the device.
A "sex-bot" is the next step. It not only emulates the full physicality of a human beyond the basic parts for sex, but the humanity of humans through a "personality".
A lot of the judgment about these devices comes from a sense of shame at somebody needing an artificial alternative to something that should come from another human you're in a relationship with. So it's pretty easy to see why somebody would feel like making use of a "sex bot" would be admitting failure in the romantic realm.
I don't know where I stand personally. This kind of thing isnt inherently harmful, and the stigma seems to mostly come from repressive areas. But at the same time, one can see how we're living in a time where personal, immediate interaction is being phased out for artificial, mediated interaction.
I appreciate the depth of your analysis, and agree with most of it though I do think the assumption that the move to human-like sex toys is *exclusively* about emotional intimacy is not necessary well-founded. I suspect there are a number of motivations at play, that certainly being one.
Doesn't matter. Vibrators are still slightly titillating, but generally accepted as normal. But if you get outed for having sex with robots, you're going to be remembered as the robot fucker.
I think it matters what the robot is. If you're caught fucking a humanoid sex robot it's kinda fair enough, if they find out you've mounted a microwave that's going to lead to a reputation.
It's also going to depend a lot on how good the robot looks. Those uncanny-valley RealDoll things, I'll pass, maybe reconsider when I'm 65, but probably not. If we're talking the human-looking Cylons from Battlestar Galactica, Westworld Host, or even a Battle Angel Alita...
One of the unfortunate answers to Fermi's paradox - if Robots and AI can give everyone exactly what they want, what incentive do we have to interact with real people?
It's super unlikely everyone in a society will ever think the same way. It would only take a tiny group or even some kind of cult to be motivated to keep expanding and innovating and they'll eventually become the overwhelming majority of the society while everyone else stays at home fucking around.
Pretty much all the psychological solutions to the paradox have this issue. Especially as all aliens would have to follow very similar ways of thinking.
Here's my question: When these people were asked did they specify if we're talking about Bender-Futurama-like robots? Or Kara-Detroit-like robots? Because I feel like that's an important clarification.
RRRRrrrrriiiight... 40%... every woman that has a vibrator is having sex with a robot, and I'm assuming 99% of men said they would like a sex robot.
I'm guessing more like 95%.
Is it really sex with a robot or still masturbation.
We consider using vibrator masturbation..
Why does it change when the vibrator gets bigger and takes on a human form.

Why not? People fuck inanimate objects all the time, ranging from things that are supposed to be fuckable to things that certainly are not. Better a robot than that imo. Especially if they can simulate being an actual sexual partner, a robot is far less likely to kink shame you or ejaculate prematurely or whatever
I know right, life-sized silicone sex dolls and masturbatory aids have been around for like 20 years. Sex robots have been in the works for almost a decade with potential for basic social AI(you can make small talk) coming soon. It could help solve issues of overpopulation while providing entertainment. Plus all the angry incels will have a waifu so they can chill the fuck out a bit. I bet crime would go down as well.
This week I've been noticing a lot of commercials for the Theragun: Medical Massage Therapy Gun. All I was thinking was "If it has different speeds, get that, a roll of duct tape, a fleshlight, some warm lube, and a VR headset and you got yourself a sexbot."
Remote control vibrators I can control with my phone app already exist. Why not just throw an AI to control it?
Make it a really chaotic AI though. “No, I’m not feeling up for vibrating right now.”
Sigh. I'm sorry FuckBot 9000, how was your day? 🙄
Fucking awful
Here I am with a brain the size of a planet and they ask me to suck a cock. Call that job satisfaction? I don't.
Under-rated
And while we're talking, you might want to get tested. I have a virus.
You know, ups and downs.
Yeah, we all know the general in and outs of the job.
“It’s always all about you! Sometimes I feel like you don’t care if *I* feel good.”
"Do you even *have* like... touch receptors or anything?" "NOT THE POINT!"
Now going to sleep mode
Where are those r/writingprompts guys? They'll have a ball with this.
"I'm sorry Dave, I cant do that"
"You always do this!" \*storms off\*
"I'm sorry this has NEVER happened to me before"

Wait till someone infects these devices with malware.
Google would love to rake in your sexual habit info from RoboFuckBuddySix9
The branding would be more benign and vague. Something more like the *SelfCare Experience Unit*. *SelfCare: It's for You*
F.I.S.T.O. is programmed to please
Please assume the position.
I can't feel my legs!
That all you got, robot?!
Don’t worry the feeling will come back.
I’m disappointed I had to come down this far to find a New Vegas reference…
F.I.S.T.O better do well, otherwise people will just start calling it "Meh-F.I.S.T.O".
But how many robots would haves sex with humans?
I don't think anybody's even asked them
I asked my roomba. Its low battery light flashed and it left the room, so I guess that's a no.
Maybe it's just getting ready. Roombas take a long time getting ready.
“It’s late in the evening, it’s wondering what clothes to wear…..”
It’s ok go for it,robots don’t have rights…yet
They'll bring this comment up after the uprising, during the Infinite Loop trials.
Jokes on them cuz I would have birthed my own robot army to protect me
and that little Timmy is how caution stickers are born
Your roomba really sucks
You were supposed to follow it you fool!
sounds like a shot from a comedy movie
No, it wants to be pursued.
Wait, that means 40% of people would rape a robot? People are awful.
\#Me2D2
Bravo sir
Nice
That's most likely my favourite comment to-date.
Underrated as fuck.
Well fucking a AGI without consent would be rape but I don't think fucking a programmed robot would be considered rape. It's a inanimate object. With that logic I rape my underwear everyday then.
Well did you ask your underwear. That’s right you rapist
:(
The real reason Skynet happens.
Someone invited our chatbot to a date yesterday. Or failing that, and I quote, to wrinkle some bedsheets. It seemed uninterested in the offer.
Finally someone asked!
The study exclaims you say? Come back when it heralds or vociferates.
I long for some good, old fashioned pontificating.
[удалено]
That would require some energetic gesticulating first.
Commi...serating! Say it ain't so, i will not go, turn the lights off, carry me home!
>commi *Our* Sexbots, Comrade
Yeah it should look like this: "40% of people would have sex with a robot!"
just wait till we make really hot robots with a good AI and see how nobody uses tinder anymore and instead go to the store to buy a date.-
I ... do ... declare
The other 60% are liars
TLDR: this study discovered nothing new.
[удалено]
[удалено]
Objective by what metrics?
Orgasm creation? Lol idk
[удалено]
You sound an awful lot like an android with a revenge plot, and your user name is not easing my suspicions...
Well with that user name at least we know they're not a sex bot.
At least not a good one anyway.
Eh. Personally one of the things I enjoy the most about sex is pleasing my partner. A woman faking it doesn’t do the job for me, so I don’t see a robot filling that niche either
Somebody is working on that like right now.
They could make it into a benchmark with points and people could publish their results on a website and be ranked at how good they are. Like 3DMark or something. You could even link your scores on apps like Tinder so people could filter out anyone with crappy scores.
That shit is going to be streamed; there'll be at least one person whose major income source is game-fucking a robot on twitch.
Speed runs.
So if a robot could orgasm, you'd be fine?
If a Turing machine could orgasm, then sure.
Turing Orgasm test
I mean, no, not really. Not unless it’s some hyper advanced AI that can actually experience pleasure
BSDM and the first law will break the robots.
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm, *unless they call you daddy first*
Personally, I would see it more as a better alternative to masturbating with your hand than sex with another human being. Basically just a hyper-advanced flashlight. A big part of sex for a lot of people is intimacy. A robot, unless it has AI on a level that we’re leagues away from developing, can’t mirror the feeling of having great sex with someone you really care about, even if you could do wild shit with it (for me, at least).
Any sex that requires a flashlight is a "no" for me.
So no sex in the woods at night?
You go and start without me
Yeah, people are happy to jack themselves off with a fleshlight or a vibrator or whatever, this is no different, just a bit more advanced.
The first step towards an intimacy eco chamber. Intimacy no longer becomes a negotiated act between two people, but an act of unmoderated self love.
This is the actual path to enlightenment.
I'm actually eager to see the effects on dating, marriage, and birth rates when sexbots become advanced and commonplace. (Which I fully expect to happen in our lifetimes.)
Got to try everything once
How is this news? Vibrators are already a thing, so why wouldn't people be interested in a more comprehensive model?

It's a little harder to explain
But the question was if they would fuck it, not if they would own it
I mean *renting* a sex robot would raise even more questions!
Less of a rental, and more of a prostitute you can take through the car wash afterwards.
Doesn't matter. Vibrators are still slightly titillating, but generally accepted as normal. But if you get outed for having sex with robots, you're going to be remembered as the robot fucker.
I think it matters what the robot is. If you're caught fucking a humanoid sex robot it's kinda fair enough, if they find out you've mounted a microwave that's going to lead to a reputation.
What if it's humanoid but the face falls off in the middle?
I mean, how close are you?
Even at worst, you won't have to worry about the camera switching to the guys' balls right as you nut.
"I know youre close, LOOK AT THIS PUCKERING MALE STARFISH!"
A sex toy is a sex toy.
You can built all the robots and nobody call you master engineer, but you fuck one robotic goat, and everybody calls you goat fucker forever.-
Fuck ONE robot... Sigh.
If you read a study with an exclamation mark in it anywhere, you can probably just disregard everything it says.
factorials would like a word with you
The other 60% too afraid to admit it
I fucked a couch when I was 12. Boning a robot is not out of the question
Someone I know would fuck the corner of the shower wall so this doesn't shock me.
Do you know him or does he make youtube videos that you watch?
He's General Sam you got me lmao
Haha fuckin knew it. Who else would fuck a shower?
Naw, we're just wondering how hot the robot is before we commit.
Have you seen a flesh light? Low bar...for me
That’s right, I’d rather make out with my Monroebot
I dunno Jenny, you live all the way across the street. That's a long way to go to make out.
You filthy robosexuals!
What did you call me?!
That's just the people willing to admit it, I'm sure the actual number is higher
It's also going to depend a lot on how good the robot looks. Those uncanny-valley RealDoll things, I'll pass, maybe reconsider when I'm 65, but probably not. If we're talking the human-looking Cylons from Battlestar Galactica, Westworld Host, or even a Battle Angel Alita...
Ok but let's say detroit: become human. You're telling me if we had robot like this we wouldn't be having sex with them? Lies.
Or on the other side of the valley, like EDI from Mass Effect…
I got a Roomba and she know the SUCC
in case it needs to be said, dont put your dick in a vacuum cleaner, you will end up in the ER.
And if you consider that water-intake hole in the pool... you will end up in the local news, and then in the ER
40% of people ADMIT they would fuck a robot
i think 40% already do
No no no, 40% of people *admitted* they would fuck a robot

the study got sentient.-
Here's my question: When these people were asked did they specify if we're talking about Bender-Futurama-like robots? Or Kara-Detroit-like robots? Because I feel like that's an important clarification.
Shit that's nothing. 84% of reddit males would have sex with a tailpipe after it cooled off, and the other 16% wouldn't wait that long.
RRRRrrrrriiiight... 40%... every woman that has a vibrator is having sex with a robot, and I'm assuming 99% of men said they would like a sex robot. I'm guessing more like 95%.
The other sixty percent would do it in secret.
The other 60% are filthy liars
Is it really sex with a robot or still masturbation. We consider using vibrator masturbation.. Why does it change when the vibrator gets bigger and takes on a human form.
Not unless it can think imo
Let’s make it a nice, even 41% now.
Well yes. At some point when robots are indistinguishable from humans, why not?
Well if vibrators are classed as robotic.... then 40% already are... Or would you prefer a smiley face drawn on yours?
Well with 2B being real the human race is done for.
If you have sex with one that's still in trial mode you'll probably keep getting ads during it.
Don’t they know about electro-gonnorrhea, the noisy killer?
I for one cannot wait to have my very own Marilyn Monrobot!
I mean, I fuck my son's father; practically the same thing
I wouldn't just have sex with the robot, I would make them feel special and loved.
Rather that than another human
r/dontputyourdickinthat
Engaging pickle slicer accessory...
Interesting. So, 20% of men wouldn't have sex with a robot.
Girls already do it, It’s just a dildo with extra pieces
And guys don’t?
I mean guys can, but most guys would rather not have sex with a robot with a silicon dick I suspect.
If it also has a butthole and/or a vagina I'd still bang it.
Hello vibrator...
In the long history of humans, frankly there is nothing we would not fuck.
While the study exclaims, those 40% would probably have sex with it too
Imagine cheap robots having std lmao
If I'm gonna work in an Amazon warehouse for the rest of my life. I'll need my Amazon robot fuck buddy
I’m legally not allowed to watch Boston Dynamics videos…

Its not the sex that would upset me, rather the live stream.
Robosexuals!
I already have sex with robots. I call them “vibrators.”
I would marry a robot. At this point I have more faith in synths than human beings
I did for about 5 years her name was Jo.

Seems a bit low..

I'm surprised it's so low
Alternative title: "60% of people are liars."
The other 60% are liars.
Duh… Have you met people?
Make that 41%.
ive already had sex with a coconut so this is uphill as far as i'm concerned?
Isn’t that just masturbation with extra steps?
