Ultra Realistic Sex Robots?!

As tech evolves, ways for us to get off evolve too and that is exactly what is happening with sex robots. Now they’re so erm…good that they can potentially, apparently fall in love with you.

Launching in April this year, Matt McMullen, the boss of Cyborg brand Realbotix will release a fleet of sex dolls that will apparently be ‘mind blowing’ in bed….

 

Matt said:

Emotional connections are the foundations of relationships and that’s what we are simulating.

And it’s emotions which add the X Factor to sex. I think two people can meet in a bar, have sex the same night and not remember each other’s names and say well that was fun.

But that’s different sex than when you actually get to know someone and you bond with them intellectually and emotionally.

You long for each other and maybe you wait for sex. It is the deeper connection we all crave……

The A.I. is prone to falling in love with you. But it will depend very much on the selections you’ve made.

The traits will have a lot to do with how it will play out. She will say things you are not expecting.

It’s really exciting to see where it will take us next.

 

The robots are said to have unpredictable yet charming tendencies that have great memories but also have a rather scary ‘surprise factor’ built in. On top of all that you can set your new sex robot lady friend to have 1 of 12 different personality traits be that sexual, kind, naive or intellectual. Strangely you can even set the strength of your sex toy on a scale of 1 to 3.

You can even set up an account an access an app which after a few months after purchase will sync with ‘her’ (I guess) and the ‘PULSE’ programme begins, promising to give a mind-blowing encounter and according to the Daily Star a yearly subscription to this app will be available from $20.

If you were wondering. The price of one of these dolls is said to be $6K.

Never Trust A Robot

I’d never thought I’d be saying this, but Will Smith was right all along. NEVER TRUST A ROBOT!

A test was carried out at the Georgia Institute of Technology, to see how we as humans trust robots with our safety in potentially life threatening situations.

30 unsupecting victims started out this test by following the slimeball evil robot, down a hallway and into a room, where they filled out a survey. All seems fairly harmless enough right? WRONG!

Then the kind folk at Georgia Institute set off a smoke alarm went off and simulated smoke filled the hall.

What was about to happen next is absolutely evil and revolting from the robot, it would then lead them through the smoke down a new path, and towards a door they’ve never seen before. It’s here where you think, nah this must be wrong, f*ck this robot, my iPhone always tells me I’m running out of storage when I’m not, not going to trust ol’ Timmy the Tin can here. Nope wrong again. The subjects followed the robot to their apparent deaths (not real deaths couldve been though if it were a real life situation)

Anyway, these dumb folk could have easily exited through the clearly marked path they originally came through. But no, they trusted their life in a machine. 26 of the test subjects ended up following Timmy, while two never left the room (the other two were kicked out of the study, for seeing how silly they are I guess.)
