7 of 9: technically not a bot.

Speaking of bot evolution I stole this from someone.

The ship avatars on Andromeda were sex capable.

Ick.

No fucking thank you. I'd rather be celibate or dead.

just to make it more absurd

considering i would like nothing more than to replace my body with a artificial one, it isnt that big of a stretch to have sex with machines or other cyborgs

I don't see a problem with it. The uncanny valley is just too deep now for me to be able to empathize with people who might do that.

One issue is that once we're on the other side of the uncanny valley in terms of AI, we're going to have to start dealing with the rights of our sex toys.

i am an introvert, I am going to be alone anyway, i also wanted to have good companion, someone who is there but not speaking much or interfering, like a brother. We are all going to have the kind of company we seek. It might be a good thing for me personally, but might be bad socially, the conservatives too will have their own racist,homophobic,fundamentalist robots.

indeed

my socialness is very complex, while i enjoy the company of others and doing group activities i prefer to do them on my own terms and to be on my own as often if not more so. a robot who could leave you to do your own thing but still be around for companionship would be ideal

humans are too unpredictable and selfish for me to get a worthwhile relationship out of them

I saw a docu about these ages ago,. Apparently if the owners don't keep the vagina clean they rot and have to be returned to the US in a big coffin-like crate to get a new one. A new vagina I mean. Is it still called a vagina if it's plastic? :scratch:
