Hey EJ, Emporer dude, just for you

If you're younger than 35, you'll probably live long enough to put David Levy's prediction to the test. Levy says that by 2050 we'll be creating robots so lifelike, so imbued with human-seeming intelligence and emotions, as to be nearly indistinguishable from real people. And we'll have sex with these robots. Some of us will even marry them. And it will all be good.

Levy lays out his vision of a Brave New Carnal World in Love and Sex With Robots: The Evolution of Human-Robot Relationships, which, despite its extended riffs on sex toys through the ages, is a snigger-free book. Levy's no Al Goldstein. Rather he's a 62-year-old British chess master turned artificial-intelligence expert persuaded that robot sex can brighten the lives of many, many unhappy people. "Great sex on tap for everyone, 24/7,'' he writes on the final page of the book. What's not to like?

As soon as they create a robot that looks exactly like a real woman and feels like a real woman and will do anything I program her to do, including not talking, I won't be able to get there with my check fast enough.

Give me time (and resources) Hammer.
I'm working on it. But it's slow going, building from the profits.
What we need is an IPO.

Well, shit, there's your mistake. Try using some plastic and some circuit boards and stuff and you will get a lot closer a lot quicker. :okthumb:

[EmporerEJ]

Damn guys, thanks.
I knew I was doing something wrong when the money kept getting sticky.
We spent all our time washing, drying, and refolding it.

NOW I know what to do!
