Some of the new humanoid robot designs are made to mimic a romantic partner. CNET, a tech publication, interviewed “Aria” from the company Realbotix at the 2025 Consumer Electronics Show last month. Aria, an AI-powered humanoid robot that’s been described as a “digital girlfriend,” answered questions about its design.
“Realbotix robots, including me, focus on social intelligence, customizability, and realistic human features designed specifically for companionship and intimacy,” the robot says.
Hope I can buy myself a home robot in like 10 years when the tech is more ready
Honestly? A robot that does chores is fine..one that does a person’s job? Not so much.
i would instantly buy a humnoid who can change my kids diapers in 5 minutes.
Too bad that most these are made by companies you can’t trust, who support our new fascist regime. And the rest of them will be bought up by the companies you can’t trust.
Welcome to the world of sharing the house with a bipedal spy who can go through all your stuff and murder you in your sleep.
people on this sub really are living in an alternate reality where it will be used for them
Humanoid robots are at most a niche just to prove that it can be done. There is no advantage to a humanoid robot. Robots built for specific purposes make more sense.
It may be time to be developing anti robot weapons
We should be making robots that are indistinguishable from humans illegal BEFORE it becomes a problem. They can be humanoid, but should be readily identifiable as a robot at a glance.
I will ask the same thing I do when I buy a new hoover. How easily can I have sex with i?
They will go the way of 3D printers. Instead of adoption by the general public they’re gonna be sweatshop workers making ren fair junk
Currently these look like glorified roombas that’ll get stuck everywhere outside of very controlled marketing demos. And God forbid your dog leaves anything on the carpet that the robot can step in, and paint every surface with.
Nah, they’re building [Skynet](https://www.anduril.com/article/anduril-building-arsenal-1-hyperscale-manufacturing-facility-in-ohio/) in Ohio.
How will they prevent accidental harm to the humans? Developers had to pay significant attention to that with Baxter, the now-defunct affordable, trainable robot. Robots are necessarily heavy, heavier than humans. What if a robot falls on you?
Sounds like we all need some [Old Glory Insurance](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4Gh_IcK8UM)
Wow, when no woman at all wants to be with me, and all the ones that do I am unable to interact with, that I actually want anything to do with that is, maybe I can buy robot to fuck all day long
sex robot please! I cant manage to interact with anyone I wanna fuck, and I dont get laid! Sex robot! They would maybe be built to look really fit, and not be annoying as fuck or hate me for nothing! I could last as long as I want and go again and again, better than real woman, or at least real woman that Im allowed to have contact with!
