I don’t think so. It’s got too much of an Uncanny Valley thing going on for my tastes.

No. I don’t even have to look at the pictures.

Well, of course he did. After that horrific day, didn’t we _all_ want to go out and build sex robots?

I don’t know about sex, but install GPS and I’d use it in the HOV lane.

It’s _horrible_. I’d rather have sex with an animal (and believe me, that’s not high on the list).

I foresee an exceptionally high view : post ratio for this one.

I’d _try_ to fuck the thing, but I don’t know if I could keep it hard. I’m not sure that I could.

I would consider sex with a robot but it would have to be more attractive than that one.

It would take a whole lotta cash. And a promise that nobody would ever, ever know. Even then I’m not sure…

Oh _hell_ no. Besides the creepy uncanny valley aspect, that look on its face seems … unpleasantly _surprised_. Like she was just stabbed through the heart.

Also, its teeth look like the rest of its “flesh,” which is kind of creepy in its own right.

I think I’d go for [this robot](http://jasontheodor.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/rosie.jpg) before that creepy, corpse-like creature of the night.

Yes.

Every time Paris Hilton or Britney Spears talks I loose a little wood.

Dammit, its obvious that thing talks like hell. I am going to have to wait till AI gets ALOT better.

Those pics are too damn funny though. I wonder if the Frigid Farrah model comes at a discount?

It would be less creepy to install an artificial vagina on a Furby.

Why oh why did they have to go for the slack-jawed deer-in-the-headlights look? That’s one of the worst things about porn!

Oh, and re the OP? _No._.

Don’t give them ideas.

I don’t think it’s actually possible to have sex with a device like that. It would certainly be possible to use it in masturbation, and it’s conceivable that I might consider doing so (though I’d want a sexbot that looked a lot hotter and was able to produce at least some movement), but I wouldn’t consider that “sex”, any more than using a fleshlight is sex.

Now, if it actually behaved like a human, that’d be different, and that appears to be the direction that this company is aiming in (though falling hugely far of the mark, so far).
