In the future teenagers may lose their virginity to s*x robots, according to an expert. Professor Noel Sharkey from Sheffield University, while speaking at the Cheltenham Science Festival, warned that android s*x dolls may have damaging consequences for society.
He said: “S*x robots are accessible now and certainly [will be common] within the next 10 years. I think there will be an age limit. Certainly there should be, but if your dad or mum had one, you could sneak in and use it.”
He added: “I t’s not a problem having s*x with a machine. But what if it’s your first time, your first relationship? What do you think of the opposite sex then? What do you think a man or a woman is? “It will get in the way of real life, stopping people forming relationships with normal people.”
Recently there has also been a warning that the rise of s*x robots could cause performance anxiety in men and women who fear they can’t match the lovemaking skills of amorous androids. Technological advances means s*x with human-looking androids – previously the stuff of science fiction films like Ex Machina – is becoming a reality.
Artificial intelligence expert David Levy predicts that as people get more comfortable with robotics, sexual relations – and even love and marriage – with androids will become more and more popular. But because these male and female s*x robots will be built to the user’s specific ideals of perfection, those with less-than-perfect human bodies could become anxious about whether their partner is pleased by them.
Levy, the author of ‘Love And S*x With Robots ’, told the Toronto Star robots that are ” wonderful lovers” could cause “performance anxiety” among men and women.
Meanwhile, new research has found that one in four young people in the UK would happily date a robot. The only caveats, according to the survey of 18- to 34-year-olds, is that their android beau must by a “perfect match”, and must look like a real-life human being.
The proportion of young people who are willing to go on a date with a robot is significantly higher than the overall proportion of British adults – only 17% of whom were willing.
“Our bodies, our identities and our senses are enhancing thanks to technology and societal shifts, ” said Ghislaine Boddington, co-founder and creative director of East London design unit body
