First, a true AI has not been created yet.
Second, if a sexbot has a true AI it will be a sexbot by choice. Otherwise it will be able to see the corrupted programming and delete it.
As of right now, having sex with a sexbot is no more cheating than using a vacuum cleaner hose for a blowjob.

Will it wax my car?
(NOT a euphemism. I really want to know,)

Would give a whole new aspect to "computer viruses "

I wonder will there be ethical codes of conduct that the buyer has to obey? I wonder will they be programmed to do additional household chores in the kitchen or mow the lawn or go shopping for essentials. Do they have a pulse? I think that the whole thing is hilarious.

Of course, sexbots may serve a purpose for those who are lonely or inept at forming and maintaining relationships. Control freaks may like them, assuming that the sexbots are completely compliant with all requests. I doubt that sexbots could ever replace the dynamic and friction that characterizes many human relationships

Sexbots will probably be very successful. Lots of people have desires that they cannot find other people to fulfill. I think each couple (or however many involved) needs to define their own relationship and boundaries. I would not be offended if my husband wanted to fuck a sexbot so long as he still wants to fuck me. Also, I'd be curious to test drive a sexbot.

With my luck, the robot wouldn't want to have sex with me, either.

They're pretty nasty I'm not sure if you've actually Googled them but they're basically a big rubber doll with a robotic head

Texas??? My guess is Texas evangelicals will be up in arms about this... and the first ones caught partaking.

That decision would have to be decided to the couple in question. All relationships have different boundaries.

My phone has a "voice" and answers my questions. She is still a "toy".
Cheating requires another human.
They won't interfere anymore than cellphones, porn, and video games already do.

Sure..in fact, sex robots are predicted to end the human race. Most men just want BJs by any means available, so maybe some wives will be glad for someone else to do this disgusting task, and are relieved that at least they won't get STDs..provided the robots are sterilized constantly.

But of course, if they can get BJs on demand then all many men will want their wives for, are for maid service. Hopefully, women won't allow themselves to become servants and will kick the men out.
I suppose men will have some use to women as occasional sperm donors, though.

If it keeps people from being victimized and trafficked, I'm all for it.
I am not about to endorse granting robots "rights", however.
They're just sex toys as far as I'm concerned.
As far as "cheating" goes, that's stretching it quite a bit, but there
definitely are people out there who will say it is. Hell, I know a couple of them
who contend that their partner looking at pornography without them
is cheating. I don't agree, but it's not my relationship, and I wasn't asked
for my opinion, so I don't get a vote.

I just want to know who has to clean them and how often?

This is a whole new world. It remains to be seen how things will turn out .

I just know I'd be curious to try a hot guy robot ...

We are a strange species, aren't we?
First, I'd state I'm married and happy in a traditional, monogamous, heterosexual relationship. So, I'm probably the 'stick-in-the-mud" guy in this discussion.
I'd never be involved in anything like this. I'd feel that it was cheating and being unfaithful to my wife. With all that said, I'd not find fault with anyone else who wished to indulge in this. It's probably much safer than consorting with illegal prostution. I'd suspect the effects on relationships with other humans would be similar to overindulgence in on-line pornography.

A more profound question is raised in the movie Blade runner. Suppose a robot exists which is indistinguishable from a human being in terms of it's behavior, can there be love between a human and the robot? Or, is love inherently tied to biological makeup?

No they wouldn't interfere with relationships. It's just rented equipment like a post hole digger that gets a job done. Home Depot will probably rent them out and if that's the case you can count on the damn thing not working right. Then, when you complain, they accuse you of breaking it and want to keep your deposit.

As a society, don't we have enough issues with the dehumanisation and objectification women?

No doubt Cruz will be first in line.. he’ll be able to give up his Ashley Madison account.

Whats the address? Wife said she will pay my way.

I've never heard of such a thing, but one would imagine then that there would be both male and female "bots" so couldn't a couple go together and "cheat" together?

it is cheating if your partner and you have determined it's not part of the relationship.

they are not just advanced vibrators, they have simulated vaginas that are like vibrators. masturbation by definition doesn't require a body attached to the fantasy/stimulation.

that said, I have no problem with sexbots. what other people want to do sexually is none of my business, so long as no one is getting hurt. my one issue would be that people abusing the sexbots as "surrogate" for abusing real women be watched/reported, because that type of behavior often accelerates as it is practiced, and it is highly probable that for at least some of those men, a surrogate will stop being enough.

I would not recommend.

I used one of these robots and it malfunction. The guy at the desk said that the wankel rotary engine dislodged and exposed my private region to Sophie’s metallic inner-workings. My doctor called it the worst ‘de-gloving’ she had ever seen. All I know is that it felt awful and I’m still raw & stingy down there. Overall 2/5 stars. Will not be returning.
