Yeah, because no one else has ever predicted that sexbots are coming

There can be lots of prophets. I mean, it's not exactly a profession with high entry standards.

Exactly....I never said I was 'the' prophet, just 'a' prophet

Negative much?

no.

Dear God.

I thought it was the users of the sex bots that were coming...

I showed the article to my boyfriend. He looked at it, and said, "yeah, I'd hit that." I'm so proud. :/

Try to look passive and mechanical. Your relationship may depend on it.

Oh man, Amazon. That's... Here, take it a step further! Next time he initiates...relations...go completely immobile and for every action utter the most inane sentences that pop into your head. Chances are he'll flip a bit. If not...um, you might have a problem. XP

Turning to the actual topic, haha, yeah, go Han! I think we all knew it'd happen some day. Honestly, I'd be more impressed by this if she moved, too. (I'd also be more impressed if they made male models as well.) The idea of sexbots kind of bothers me, though, because sex partners (especially women) are already so objectified as it is--is it better to treat a robot that way? Will that affect the way people treat human sex partners? What if the robots' AI achieves autonomous sentience?

Another Angels prediction has shown itself! Apple has released the iPad, which looks to me very much like the kind of computer pads the Icebreakers carry around at times.

Or the datapads from Starwars. Or the LCARS pads from Star Trek...
