Ian Yeoman of the University of Wellington in New Zealand posits that we could soon be heading to charming resorts on the coast where we have rough sex with robotic pleasure bots. He writes:

“Robotics will become important, because you’re going to have labour shortages in the future,” he said…Even robot “prostitutes” that would not pass on diseases such as HIV could make an appearance.”

Obviously Mr. Yeoman knows less about than even we do – which means he probably hasn’t given a Roomba a hot beef injection – but with enough trial and error I’m sure we can create a female robot that would sleep with us given enough booze and pleading.

Oh. My. God. Maybe they could run off of booze.
