First robot pets, now this. There's just no limit to the delusions that we can create for ourselves.

Don't know what to think about it... : or or or
Maybe all of the above...

It fits right in with the human degradation of the senses. All tricks to keep us numb, docile... Intentionally? Don't know... the effect is the same!

I see it as people not being happy with reality, so they try to create an alternative virtual reality that has everything they can't get in the outside world.

I agree, but it goes both ways. If the ptw(b) don't want you to know who you really are (which they've set the blueprint for with the help of...) and you fell for it (as humanity has fallen for it), you'll live in this human degradated reality, a lower reality that creates unhappy people (don't get me wrong by interpreting lower reality as an opposite of higher/better reality... there's no value added here... imo they're just different dimensional playgrounds)... it perpetuates itself. If you saw the guy in the video who designed the doll, I guess in his way he meant well ("innovations to make your life more sexually fullfilling and to spice my bank account"). He might actually (want to) believe that he's helping people to "create an alternative virtual reality that has everything they can't get in the outside world".

the concept is inevitably ,predictable, sad people who cant have a real relationships would think like this.
the article was a total non starter, the comments left typicallly disturbing and divisive, but then i watched the video, he just casually assualted the doll and no-one watching seemed even mildly disturbed.. hope they dont use him as a model for a male version.

made me angry!

bring on the new earth, quick

Loneliness is a horrible, destructive emotion in our society..

Are these inventions the answer?

i believe each one of us, know someone who is lonely enough that , they could use someone like this...

These days ...you can get by on a smile.... Beauty is a commodity ..

i fee; very sad for the lonely...the "ugly"...

i dont even want to watch the video..

It looks like a minor upgrade to a blow up doll, now with choose-your-Voice Box!
No wonder females can get a bit fed up with "male's" perceptions, hopes and scientific endeavors.

Oh, well. It's probably better than, what, GMO seeds. (?)

Yes, it works thus far with non-manipulated seeds.

Sorry... had to say it!

Apparently Julie the deluxe model comes with a built in MP3 player, radio, mobile phone and WiFi connection.
Guess where the radio tuning buttons are

Do men really see this as a viable alternative to a real woman?

Why?

I suppose. This one costs $9000 for a good one. A really bad real woman could run into $100,000 or more.

The fun begins when said bots are linked in real time to actors (shades of The Diamond Age and Being John Malkovich). Safe sex? How weird is that! Also, If you like your bot avatar more than your own body, can you hire a shaman to upload your soul to the robot?

Cool, no pain and all the sex you want! You could record your life and when you come back as a robot you can recall you past life!

hi celine ...
i know what you mean ... initially i felt this roxxy robot a degradation to females ... perhaps because of the '10' they built her to be ...

but then as i processed this more ... i felt more and more we are taking away from our humaness of who we are ... replacing our true selves with who we want ourselves and others to be ... as if what we are is not enough ...

i'm very open about everything ... i know miss roxy will be of interest to some ... and that's great ...
but something feels like it is constantly being taken from our humaness ...

the distractions just keep getting more distracting i suppose ...

pulling us further away ...
