And so it begins, the destruction of human society.

Not just humans. This is what Frank Drake forgot in his equation. The percentage of civilizations that invent completely immersive sexual reproduction simulators and subsequently go extinct.

This is disgusting, not because it is porn, but because someone felt the need to take a cutting edge piece of consumer technology and put the time and brain cycles into developing something like this.

Are people really that desperate, are their elements of society that actually have a need for this. The beginning of the end no doubt if this is the future of entertainment and sexual gratification.

There are terrible lonely and desperate people in the world, yes. I'm surprised that fact could be lost on anyone. Poor, unattractive, unfit men have almost no opportunity to sleep with any women whatsoever and zero chance of sleeping with an attractive woman unless they pay for it. Unattractive, unfit women have more opportunity, but with increasingly unsafe partners the more undesirable the woman.

Simulators and robots will bring a lot of happiness to a lot of ugly people. It will be a good thing.

onlythelonely can't reply to your comment.

But you are speaking to the guy who finds it easier to communicate with machines than people a lot of the time, and lets say I'm going through a dry spell, I have no religious or esoteric beliefs to cloud my opnion or judgement. I still see no redemption and only compounded misery in a product like this.

Yeah, because the only reason we have sex is to make babies.

Versus say taking cutting edge robotics technology and making stuff that kills people.

Weapons research is equally vile, it is also a differnt discussion. This is about sexual gratification.
