I want a mecha godzilla, not a waifu doll that cries and goes UwU
Even better news: they're gonna be overpriced, overengineered gimmicks that waste the military's time and money.
we have robots we use them in factories and warehouses. It's really very boring
Can it be happy crying at least?
Wait, no Mecha Godzilla happy crying would be just as creepy :scared:
Secretly teaching radical feminism to the robots at the sexbot factory, cackling to myself safe in the knowledge that whoever opens its box is due a five hour lecture on the patriarchy and how historical oppression of women shaped the restrictive contemporary gender roles.
Cherry 2000 vibes. I think they wanted to do a sequel with a sexbot revolution.

I think there's been at least one sci-fi short story with this premise. If not, there should be.
Capitalism can and will take anything potentially good and use it in the most abusive and destructive ways that might make number go up.
Yeah but if there's ever a reasonably-priced sex bot, I know I'm buying that.
I don't know. It's a complicated thing.
How many would be used to help people? How many would be used for people to act out their sick abuse fantasies?
"Experiencing intimacy" means nothing if there isn't a consenting human being doing it with you.
What you're suggesting is nothing more than masturbation, which people already do. And we already have a huge problem of people reducing their partners' bodies to a masturbatory aid, and the objectification and devaluation that comes with this.
If it is programmed to consent all the time, is it really consent?
What do we call a kind of sex that you engage in with someone who is categorically subordinate to you?
On a related note, where does the word "robot" come from?
who would like a safe way to experience intimacy without the stress and worry
Yeah! A characteristically human function, just without all the messy and unpredictable things that make it human!
Like playing sports, with no physical exertion so disabled people can do it, and with nothing at stake so it doesn't overwhelm anyone.
I’m a transhumanist, I don’t believe in being human in the first place
Fair enough.
I think there's a lot of value in experiencing the physicality, discomfort, exertion, imperfection, non-guaranteed, risky aspect of living. Don't get me wrong, I want to see an end to most illness, the extension of the human body, and the ability to biologically reset our brains so we can live again as if waking from a deep sleep. But I think being an organism, having a body is a good thing. I think that in many ways the search for perfection removes meaningfulness.
I think part of what I'm trying to say is
what if we kissed
on top of the shipping container full of sex asses
Picture if your favorite sex toy could also tell you that you are doing a good job then make you dinner afterwards. It is the trad husband/wife future ever nerd secretly hopes will come someday
You know how the terminator was based on a european body builder? Yep. They repurposed the old design template.
pretty sure we'll have 86'd ourselves before we get close to fuckable robots. hopefully anyway.
Jokes on you, I seen some websites. Plenty of machines you would not expect have been fucjable for a while
Omg I bet someone has burnt themselves trying to fuck one of those :michael-laugh:
Yeah. On the other hand, at least I'll finally get to have sex (even if it's with a robot)
Nah, the first robots will replace workers, which will happen as soon as the tech exists and then becomes cheaper per hour than workers, industry by industry. Then after the ladder is fully pulled up, the sex bots will release available with a subscription you can maybe just barely afford the ad-supported tier of if you really cheap out on food and rent and drop all your other subscriptions. Your robot girlfriend will weave advertisements into conversations and slowly brainwash you into being entirely dependent on this subscription and to buy other products you can scarcely afford.
I'm actually pro-sexbot on this one. One day, and this day will come soon, there will be a "good enough" sex robot. It won't be quite as good as a real woman, but it will be good enough. They'll probably cost about half as much as a car. So, if men can afford a car, men can probably also afford a sex robot. And if not, you can rent.
Men will no longer need women for constant sex urges and can evaluate a woman without the urgency of sex constantly pushing them. The dream will be realized: Men will no longer judge women by their bodies. And that is going to be a gigantic leap forward for our culture.
Or it might have the opposite effect and sexists will declare women obsolete because they only see them as useful for sex and housework
But women won't be useful for sex. That's the whole point of sexbots. Men will be able to evaluate women without considering sex. That's been women's demand for...a long, long time. And it will become reality sooner than anyone thinks.
Exactly my point, a lot of sexists think "when we have sex robots, women are going to be obsolete."
They don't see women as having worth outside of that. So when they no longer need them for sex they'll consider them useless.
What I'm trying to say is that sexbots won't change how sexists view women.
It will keep them from wanting to talk to women so it is still a win.
What I'm trying to say is that it will divorce "I want sex from a woman" from "I want a woman". Too much of the latter is driven by the former. Men will finally be able to look at women for who they are as people, instead of a pair of tits and an ass. This is something that women have been demanding for a long, long time. And it's finally going to come true.
Come now, look on the bright side of things. Don't be such a Debbie downer all the time.
I dunno man, I'm just going by experience. I'm used to being disappointed. I hope you're right though.
What happens when people have no interest in sex with each other because neither one measures up to how good the robot is?
This is extremely optimistic, and therefore incorrect. More likely is that men will expect women to perform sexually the same way the sexbots do, and their objectification of women will get worse and women will suffer more than they already do
even if you've gotta have a sexbot, mecha godzilla is objectively way hotter than those uncanny valley oversized barbie dolls
mecha godzilla sex bot may lead to more than a dick flattening if you're into trampling, but i'm not one to kinkshame
feel like it'd be bad opsec to describe specifically the various things I want mecha godzilla to do to me
I'd think that's something you only do once and never tell anybody about but everybody definitely knows when you did.
