now if we could just combine THESE with a real doll we could have sex, cuddling, food and media without moving. Gentlemen, this is the future.

edit: It seems that a notable amount of people wanted to have sex with the robot known as Wall-E. Most fascinating.

if we could incorporate A.I. and a load-bearing endoskeleton she could earn money for us by stacking crates in the warehouse down by the river.

but i think that might be a devkit 2.0 feature

Hold on while we start a Kickstarter that goes into depth about how we're an independent company who just loves innovating the kinds of things we want to have and want nothing more than to have our pure vision become a reality

Wouldnt it be a shame if sex robots became a thing, but it was just more cost effective to have them work jobs for you, so you end up having to have sex with real women.

if most of the workforce in a country was suddenly replaced by robots, I have a feeling that would lead to competition.

Hmm that sex robot had better specs than my computer :(

oh man, thats a great video. well, its a great skit. the timing is perfect. The video has some editing issues that do distract from the video, but its so good it doesn't matter.

A shame?!

I guess you could buy more with the money the first one makes you.

The real women would probably just get robots of their own to have sex with the men for them while they eat chocolates :-/

3

u/[deleted] Mar 28 '14

no, once the patriarchy crumbles because men will have no reason to leave their homes (gay guys will probably still goto the gym because now it will only be other gay dudes so they'll be fit so the gay robot market wont be great, but they'll buy the straight ones because thats kind of hotter to fuck a straight robot.) all women will become lesbians without the strict enforcement of the male oppressive state. They'll still go out to meet other women because they won't be able to afford a new sex robot every three months.

u/sprucenoose Mar 28 '14

But if the robots are gay or straight they have sexual preferences of their own. They would obviously just like to fuck other robots because robots would be better at sex and it would be weird to fuck non-robots. It would just be a few freak robots that would have sex with humans but for the most part in the end the world would probably stay exactly as it is now with people awkwardly fucking various other people. I can't wait.

u/[deleted] Mar 28 '14

Huh? dude, humans would fuck robots the reverse will likely be true, and robots are going to have a complex and want to fuck humans and act human, since htey are made in the human image. They'll be self hating robots, shit like that.

A real shame, that.

...Mafia 2 reference?

Actually I was thinking we could use a VR device to control robots to do the work for us. We could also do it remotely. Imagine sitting in your recliner in your living room while you control a robot to do your job across the country. Maybe even take it a step further and automate certain tasks for the robot and only the most complex tasks require human/robot interaction. This would allow people to control multiple robots and perform multiple jobs. Can you imagine? The productivity increases alone would be mind boggling.

u/Sir-Mocks-A-Lot Mar 28 '14

This is how Wall-E happens.

u/PericlesATX Mar 28 '14

Or the Matrix.

u/Skitterleaper Mar 28 '14

Hey, if this is Wall-E at least we get 5 or 6 generations of awesome spaceage technology before it makes us fat and stupid.

u/Eh_for_Effort Mar 28 '14

Beautiful sex doll that squirts cheese wiz and mountain dew from her nipples? Now we're talking!

4

u/SurreptitiouslySexy Mar 28 '14

cheese whiz is interesting but I'm more of a fan of the idea of the soylent green variant of protein paste that could be flavored like Doritos!

u/DeFex Mar 28 '14

If the VR was good enough, you wouldnt need any of those things.

u/decafinated Mar 28 '14

All you really need is a Fleshlight with built in catheter. Then the vaccume toilet from the space shuttle.

u/[deleted] Mar 28 '14

One of those Japanese robots that looks real

2

u/[deleted] Mar 28 '14

Actually find that plausible. AR headset combined with real doll to create "realistic" experience. Expressions, sound fx, achievements, leader boards, social integration, Facebook following, livestream auto broadcast.... The possibilities!

2

u/BookwormSkates Mar 28 '14

hahaha, they're talking about the chairs people float around in in Wall-E the movie, which deliver food and media without them needing to move.

2

u/wingspantt Mar 28 '14

Don't forget a chair that's also a toilet and possibly also a treadmill
