Just yesterday, I predicted a future that included Japanese robot dating shows. And today, Fox News’s “Red Eye” featured a Japanese “fashion robot” that will model in an upcoming runway show. The future both terrifies and arouses me. Like anyone else, I’m scared that robots will eventually use sex to kill us. On the other hand, I’m looking forward to not needing the toaster to masturbate.
The full clip from Fox News is below. Be warned: it will not make you smarter. It’s kind of reminiscent of the beginning of 2001: A Space Odyssey, when the apes are all hitting the monolith.

So is this where we’re supposed to vote on the fetish tournament? Robot sex? No?
uh, sorry. nevermind.
If robots replace models, what will I masturbate to? Public servants?
I am not going to be satisfied until I get my Lucy Liu-Bot
Do they come with Happy Endings? I know i do!
Strange that so many people went there with the robot sex thing… You’ll enjoy the ‘philosophical’ discussion around ethics and robot sex here:

Is she really ‘nude’? All over YouTube like that?
