A British scientist has been awarded a doctorate for a paper predicting that humans will one day marry robots. Maastricht University awarded David Levy a PhD for a thesis entitled Intimate Relationships with Artificial Partners. Mr Levy wrote: "Trends in robotics and shifting attitudes on marriage are likely to result in sophisticated robots that will eventually be seen as suitable marriage partners. The thesis examines human attitudes toward affection, love and sexuality and concluded that the findings are just as applicable to human interaction with robots of the future as they are to relationships between humans of today. It was based on about 450 publications in the fields of psychology, sexology, sociology, robotics, materials science, artificial intelligence, gender studies and computer-human interaction. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Source: Ananova (read a more elaborated article but it was in Dutch) Erm....guess it's good news for Knoc? -lol
LOL? And artificial insemination I guess? Hmm i can just picture 'em making robots that could produce sperm one day... hahaha.. and robots able to get pregnant Lmao.

Lol...i bet u can imagine all that cant u anyway, its better than the lifeless japanese dolls i guess....
Not sure whether it was the same research or not but I also read that someone predicted that humans will consider having sex with robots very normal in the future. -shock
u could be one of those exploring new bot frontiers las. and to think we were dead sure the earth was flat.
lol hahaha i kid u not.....i can so see that happen....if ppl can have sex with plastic dolls i bet they will have more fun with robots.... i dont do bots hahaha
^yeah...I saw on Madlabs a Japanese researchteam developing a dancing partner for those who would like to dance but can't find a partner..and the step from a dance partner to bed partner is very easy made I guess..
