Right, they act human, don’t talk back, and only say what the master wants to hear. Sounds like the Demoncates, except they talk back too much.

As long as they’re not capable of synchronizing with superweapons, we’re pretty much good to go. ;)

I predict that sex with robots will become an issue in the new Terminator TV series.

You mean, like what happens when it feels emotionally rejected? Yeah, I can see that becoming a problem. ;)

If the choice was between becoming obsolete or having sex with one(or both) of those two nimrods, I choose obsolescence. My guess is, they couldn’t even warm up a robot, though.

Kudos to Colbert on both the "Are these people who have trouble getting into relationships, by any chance, the same people who write Love + Sex With Robots? "How well researched is this book?"

Nietzsche was right. Either that, or it’s about time for the Second Coming. WillBarrett on January 22, 2008 at 4:11 PM

Just thought of something….. who’s volunteering to alpha test these bots.

“Gee, sorry. We really never expected it to do that. Do you have medical coverage?”

In the future people will have emotional attachments to machines?

Just ask anyone who gets a scratch on their new car or named it.

But seriously what red blooded male would turn down Rommie?

I think Hillary was the sign of end game for women. Her salt peter voice and pant suit profile makes men turn to machine for warmth and feminine charms.

AI is not even necessary. All you need is a wifi connection and a third-world call center to handle the remote control.

Somehow I don’t think Mardi Gras in the French Quarter will be the same with public displays of “input/output ports” in exchange for beads.

One more thing, whoever opens the first sexbot brothel is going to make a mint.

In Nevada they’ll have combination sexbot/one-armed bandits. Come to think of it, that would be even more like the real thing, wouldn’t it?
