Many things are discussed in that article, from toys that are really fancy fleshlights to chat ai that poses as a sexualized minor. I find the sexualization of minors, even mock minors, to be reprehensible and we should consider shutting that down. But the rest of it is basically proposing steadily increasingly accurate (or alien) versions of fleshlights. Increasingly fancy toys for people to use by themselves or with their partners. We are not now, not likely will we be in decades, capable of producing something even remotely close to a "simulated human". The concerns there are valid, but as likely to pass as "I'm really worried about people getting access to black magic". Yes, it would be bad if it came to pass and yes, people absolutely want it, but it's not real.
