While Robots may soon be able to fulfil the pleasure of humans it will never quite be able to replace the feeling of being able to create a relationship with a real human being. This creates a lot of ethical issues as if robots were introduced as sexual objects people would be more inclined to just use them for their needs rather than try and create healthy relationships. So while commercial robots have still not really reached the point where they can’t be used for more than cleaning such as robotic vacuum cleaners it is clear that we need to consider the possible disadvantages of introducing robots in the sexual market. An very clear example of how these robots may effect society is seen in how dependant humans are of their smartphones, we can’t imagine a day without a phone in our pocket whereas back a little over 2 decades ago only a few people ever carried around a mobile phone. So maybe the introduction of sexual robots may cause the same issue.
