The "sexbots" could be better than humans in bed and we could be looking at human-robot marriages by the year 2050, experts have claimed. Popularity of the machines has been rising as their realism continues to improve and soon could replace human companionship altogether.
Joel Snell, an expert in robots from Kirkwood College in Iowa, said the machines could be programmed to each individual person’s requirements.
“Because they would be programmable, sexbots would meet each individual user’s needs,” Mr Snell told the Daily Star.
“Robotic sex may become addictive. Sexbots would always be available and could never say no, so addictions would be easy to feed,” he said.
