AI sex robots are selling well, but experts call for regulation - Business Insider

Matt McMullen and his AI-empowered sex robots in a Zoom interview with Business Insider reporter Jeff Elder.Sex robots with artificial intelligence are selling well during the COVID-19 remain-in-place orders, their makers say, even at $12,000 apiece.

Researchers say the government needs to regulate AI sex robots before the industry develops more – and point out the surprising cybersecurity risks that might come with bringing one into your life.Sex robots empowered with artificial intelligence that allows them to converse have seen a boom in sales during the COVID-19 pandemic, their makers say — providing important companionship to those left isolated.

The makers say their robotic creations will be able to walk and move their entire bodies within the next decade. At the moment, however, the robots are comprised of silicone sex doll bodies with fully robotic heads and roughly the same level of conversational ability found in Amazon's Alexa voice assistant. Still, that combination represents a significant advancement in how humans relate to AI, say robot makers.

You can watch Harmony in action on a video conference call between Business Insider, McMullen, and the Harmony and Henry dolls, in which the robots interacted very much like humans:The fully robotic head – which blinks, moves its eyes, and moves its mouth when it talks – allows the doll to converse using natural language processing; a combination of AI and linguistics that "learns" to converse better by evaluating past conversations.

A 2007 movie starring Ryan Gosling called "Lars and the Real Girl" touches on that idea, telling the story of how a socially-isolated man's personification of a sex doll ultimately leads him to overcoming his intimacy and relationship issues. There are surprising cybersecurity risks, too. In the same way that improperly-configured smart lightbulbs and internet-connected printers can leave consumers exposed to the risk of cyberattack, so too do sex robots open the possibility of an attacker making off with the user's personal data — or gaining control of the doll itself.

Disgusting and disturbing. Our society is really heading down the toilet.
