sex robots to look like your favorite celebrity
On the face of it that sounds like "wahey, sexy fun!", but if you consider it for a second you're actually suggesting a life without a real relationship with another person which is beyond depressing. If that tech becomes mainstream humanity has a major problem.
- throwaway743 4y agoI see what youre saying, but then again, think of those who are unfortunately disabled, maimed, disfigured, socially inept, etc who have never/may never have a fair shot at a relationship. For them, sex robots/robotic companions could be a fantastic thing given that theyd accept them unconditionally. It could have the ability to fill an emotional and/or physical void for them.

- agent008t 4y agoIt will make things worse for a lot more people though, just like the likes of 'dating apps' and pornography did. I wouldn't be optimistic about that; the only hope is that we develop a culture to regard it as we now regard smoking, and try to revive normal human contact.
