Rather the creepos hump that, then say a real person. But really it's all so shudder inducing.

wtfffffffff

Fry, look what you did! Now she won't shut up!

[/obligatory Futurama references]

I'd like to point out that there is something very odd going on underneath all the sex/companion/spending-$9,000-for-a-talking-rubber vagina.
Yesterday's post explained that the idea came from someone who lost a loved one in the 9/11 attacks, because they wanted to preserve someone's personality in robot form after they are dead. In the second half of this video, we get to hear the robot's personality in action. Weather this is a joke or a real sample of the android's voice, BOTH SAMPLED PERSONALITIES TALK EXTENSIVELY ABOUT A CONSPIRACY BEHIND THE WTC ATTACKS. In fact, the second one even talks blatantly about "The Jews" knowing it was going to happen. What is happening here? Is this preloaded because the designer lost someone on 9/11 and thinks there was a conspiracy? Is this what they think horny men lacking any semblance of charm or confidence would choose to talk to a girl in lingerie about? Soccer, Porsches, and a vast conspiracy to kill thousands which links the US government, "Jews" and Al Qaeda? I'm lost.

Having a computer generated voice talk sexy or about jet fuel has got to be a new fetish. Rule 32? But seriously they couldnt have gotten a real person to prerecord a bunch of lines. For an extra $10 I can have Stephen Fry read my GPS directions to me. For the amount of money this thing costs they could have got some porn stars that fit these profiles to do the voices.

My two favorite quotes: "you have a nice weener"/ "did you know, 9 to 11 was an inside job"

This is just really creepy as all get out. The voice saying that they remember burning jet fuel, are you supposed to be having sex with a ghost, or a possessed sexbot? I'm really confused here.

"You know what gets me really hot? Ten thousand tons of molten steel and jet fuel. And soccer. (...) You have a nice weiner..."

Clearly, this is Roxxxy the comedy bot.

So, she's for humping. So what? Ain't nothing wrong with that.

Although, yes, it seems like there's something wrong under the surface with this. I have no problem with a sexbot in general, but the 9-11 stuff and "Young" personality are wacky.

As for the vacuum and cooking comment, it's one of those things where's it both sexist and somewhat true. In most families and relationships I know, the balance of housework still sees the woman doing a lot of the cooking and cleaning. Why? Old norms die hard, I guess. As long as the other person splits the housework some way, then it's not a problem right? Anyway...

I'm sorry, but is Frigid Farrah for those who can't bring home a nice girl to rape?

It would be awesome to hear her interact with a Mac or Stephen Hawking. Think of the possibilities!

"You have a nice weiner."

"More like a ..Fruitopia."

Actually this is a great invention.... Why? Because any twat sad enough to buy one of these ain't going to be reproducing in the human gene pool anymore!

This thing is AWESOME!! I love the rant about her dying on 9/11... BEST TOPIC while banging an expensive doll...

If I were to get one I'd have her like stuff that I dislike so we could bicker... or have her talk about my weiner getting her off almost as good as tons of bent steel crushing her and the Jonas Brothers...

She'd be a great conversation piece... If you place her on the living room with a bunch of drunk friends...

Rob.....this is worse than any FFF you've ever posted.
Because its real....
on that note..

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

OK, the stuff that's supposed to be the doll talking has to be fake. Not only is what it's saying completely insane but you'll notice that the massive background noise on the (presumably) real portion at the start completely disappears.

Meh, I'll wait for the supirior "grandkids".

ok seariously what the fuck with that? how could you possibly get hot with that freaking thing? i mean its horrible!!! plus the fact that the bitch just talks about 9/11, what in the name of the gods was the creator thinking?

This just scrapes the very bottom of the uncanny valley.

"9/11 was an inside job." God, there is nothing sexier then that!
Also, these robot chicks are disturbingly fascinated with jet fuel and soccer.

She can't vacuum? That's faulty design, isn't suction action vital in a relationship?

Guys,

1) Rob said in the article, and I quote, "(before someone dubs over it and makes fun of the thing)" so yes, it has been dubbed over. That is not what the 'robots' talk about.

2) The biggest horror is that it looks just like Catherine Tate! AHHHHHHHHHHHH! My fucking eyes!

Damnit, I just want to know how easy it is to clean up afterwards. Can I just put a hose in her mouth and flush the system, or do I need a bottle brush or something? What about those orange tabs I drop in the garbage disposal, will they work in her??

That has to be the creepist thing of the year. the voices are strange but the shit they spout is just disturbing. If I were a guy, I would not want to hear my robot fuck toy talking about 9/11 conspiracies in a voice one step removed from the computer in Wargames.

I'd only consider it if it would call me "Harcourt Fenton Mudd" and demand to know what I've been up to.

WTF!!!!!!!
9/11 conspiracy? Jet fuel???? Molten steel??? Who responsible this? As said above; this is 10x worse than FFF. Please say the audio isn't real. PLEASE!!!! If this is real, the creator should be locked in solitary with his Roxy for the rest of his poor excuse of a life.

Whose responsible this?!! Doublas Hines responsible this... LOL! I wouldn't even want to have sex with that thing, its freakin ugly. And if I did, I would feel really guilty, like I took advantage of it because it looks and sounds like it could be mentally challenged.

You guys need to watch "Real Dolls." There are some really sad, lonely people out there.

Before commenting, I should point out my computer doesn't have volume, so I can't appreciate the audio content. Having said that, I don't have a prolem with this. Granted, in their current form, they're pretty crude, but I imagine they'll improve with time. As others have pointed out, this is, at worst, a pricey high-tech masturbatory aid. And for others, it's an acceptabe compromise in lue of no human/humanoid contact. A lot of people are berating the would-be clientel for not pursuing actual relationships, but some might just be overcome with social anxiety (something I experienced for a long while). And while immersion is a remedy for some, for others it never takes. In those cases, I don't understand why people self-righteosly champion a "abide by my standards of sexality or be condemned to total solation" so proudly. In some ways, it's similar to owning a pet: both are a form interaction between a person an something that can'reciprocate or fully appreciate (though the difference between these two examples is obvious now, whose to say it will remain so in the future). It all comes down to the question, "Who does it harm?". Even in the worst case scenario of a violent, sexist chauvenist market emerging, all that happens is that there are now that many fewer violent, sexist chauvenists in the dating pool. And wanting someone/something that shares your views isn't narcissim or else dating surveys that match like-minded people would be. It's narcissism when the merit of those views are held in relation to your feelings of personal superiorty or importance. Seriously, why force the people who don't want or can't sustain relationships into relationships (presumably with others with whom it wouldn't work)? Why is it anyone's business other than the persons directly involved unless they're imposing themselves on others? Customers are accept that this isn't the real thing. Let them be.

in the immortal words of brickhousebunny:

WHOSE RESPONSIBLE THIS??!!!11 Huh?! I wan't to know right KNOW whose bright idea was this?!! I'll have them BAN. FOR. LIVE!!!

Meh, wake me up when The Orgasmatron is invented!

As for adding more depression to it, let's watch the documentary "Real Doll" about the joys and pains of relationships with real dolls.

I think we're missing a critical point here. All technological advances are sex-related. VCRs and VHS tapes? Porn. The Internet? Porn.
Webcams? Porn.
But, the fact that the technology exists is actually quite exciting. The sex-bot is horrifying, but the concept behind it is next-level, Ghost in the Shell-type shit.
Preserving someone's personality in a robotic body? How fucking cool would that be?
Just the fact that Roxxxy is programmed with five unique personalities (one dimensional as they may be) is a huge leap forward in AI. It's a very short leap to walking-talking androids with programmed personalities.

DON'T DATE ROBOTS!

If I had a talking sex-bot, all it would say would be, "Grmph fmph ouf mrhm!" Get it? Because my balls would be in it's mouth.

What scares me the most is the impending male version.

Really people, what's so bad about hookers again? I think the low-tech solution wins.

OK... Remember that offer I made to fuck this thing for $7,000 and blog about it? I may have acted rashly. She kind of looks like a middle-aged Kathy Moriarty after a horrible fire, and the voices-- Oh, they voices!!!-- It really sounds more like a Macintosh than a woman, and I don't know if I could get it up when all I can think about when she speaks is OS X (which leads to thoughts of Steve Jobs, which leads to my erection heading south).
-
So I'd have to up that fee to $14,000 --- For that, I'd do my best, and blog about it, and then never speak of it again.
-
And if someone gives me three million dollars, I'll get a divorce, marry this thing, and let them film the honeymoon if they *really* want to.
-
Otherwise, no deal.

I'll date her, fuck her, AND take her out into public, plus blog about it, for 3 months, for $6,000. Takers?

I predict computer malfunctions in the orifices.....leading to eunuchs who will then sue the company. The thing should have been named JAWS....crooked, big teeth, ouch.

Get off your high horse, talking isn't all the companionship that lonely people need.
