Yesterday, Scott Adams posted on his blog about realistic, life-sized sex dolls currently in production. Speculating that it’s only a matter of time before dolls are imbued with an artificial intelligence that would make them virtually indistinguishable from a human woman. He left off with a question:
QUESTION: Hypothetically, in the future, if a sex doll robot was indistinguishable from a human woman, and you weren’t in a relationship with a human, would you tap the robot?
Today, he posted the responses:
About 95% of the hetero guys said they would. The other 5% expressed a strong preference for lying.
Like you didn’t see it coming.
