Fucking With Sex Robots: Exploring the Future of Intimacy
Blonde sex dolls, robots, VR, and digital sex toys have revolutionized the adult industry, but there's one thing they can’t fully replace. Mar Harrison, speaking at the "Tech Open Air" (TOA) conference in Berlin, shared her thoughts on the subject.
"Look around," said Mar Harrison, founder of the New York Center for Intelligence. "There’s probably someone here who catches your eye, someone who looks interesting, smells good, and moves in a way that draws you in." She pointed out to the tech elite in attendance that this human interaction—our ability to connect with another person in such a specific and sensory way—is what makes real-life intimacy so appealing, and something that technology struggles to replicate.
The Growing Acceptance of Sex Dolls and Technology
Between autumn 2017 and February 2018, over 22,000 participants from Germany and France were surveyed about their openness to new sex doll technology. The results showed an increasing acceptance of sex dolls and related innovations.
Embracing New Technologies
The German participants showed little hesitation when it came to adopting cutting-edge technology. In fact, 70 percent were open to the idea of receiving organs printed with 3D technology. More than half of the respondents expressed interest in undergoing permanent body scans that could continuously monitor blood pressure, pulse, and hormone levels, providing real-time health updates. Additionally, the use of nanorobots—tiny robots inserted into the bloodstream to repair cells—was also well-received.
Conservatism Toward Genetic and Brain Enhancements
While there was widespread acceptance of 3D printing technology, respondents were more conservative regarding DNA manipulation and brain enhancements. Only one in three could imagine altering their genetic material or improving their cognitive abilities through brain chips or "upgrades" designed to boost concentration, creativity, or intelligence. Female respondents, in particular, were more cautious about these advancements, with older women (60+) being significantly less likely to approve of 3D-printed organs or genetic modifications.
Conclusion: The Future of Intimacy
As technology continues to evolve, sex dolls and sex robots are gaining acceptance, especially in societies that embrace other technological innovations. However, despite these advancements, certain human interactions and sensory experiences remain irreplaceable. The future of intimacy may combine technology with elements of human connection, but the balance between the two remains a crucial aspect of the ongoing discussion.
