A report on robotic sex dolls circulated on the Internet last week. The report stated that as many as 42% of people would choose to form a “family” with robotic sex dolls.
TiDio, a foreign artificial intelligence company, recruited more than 1,200 people as the survey population, and found that 40% of them said they could “fall in love” with robotic sex dolls, 35% said they disliked it, and others maintained a neutral wait-and-see attitude. Among those who consented, men accounted for the overwhelming majority. More than 50% of consenters were men, while only 33% were women.
However, this is probably just a self-conjecture and hypothetical situation, in fact, only 39% of people believe that they will interact with technology products such as artificial intelligence or even form a family.
Robots are developing rapidly, and premium sex dolls are a branch of the robot application range. Dr. David Levy, the founder of the International Robotics Love and Sex Conference, said in an earlier interview that once sex dolls can talk, discuss and listen to words like humans, it is “they” who have the right to love freely.
Dr. Levy said: “Gamers have a feeling of love for their sex dolls, so I think there is a great potential for more people to fall in love with ‘sex’ version of the robot, but the technology is not yet fully mature.”
In his interview, he also made a bold prediction, “I am very convinced that by 2050, there will be “artificial humans” that can conduct conversations as fluent as human conversations.”
Of course, artificial intelligence and robots are not only used in the field of sex toys. According to TiDio’s survey, some people are deeply anxious about the role of artificial intelligence and automation in the economy. When asked about the jobs most likely to be replaced by artificial intelligence, 63% of respondents said that cashiers will be replaced, followed by drivers (51%) and translators (42%).
At the same time, more than 60% of people said they would use self-driving artificial intelligence cars in congested traffic environments. Gender differences in perceptions of artificial intelligence have been reflected throughout the study. Men are twice as likely to trust artificial intelligence as women, including allowing robots to perform operations on themselves or teach children to read in the future.
