The Month in Sex Tech – June 2026 Adult Spatial Videos, Grok Porn Platform, Brain-Controlled Avatars, Sex Robots, Boys Prefer AI Girlfriends

Adult Spatial Video Creator Community Launches at Spatialy.fans

Spatialy.fans is a new adult 3D spatial video community for creators to upload and showcase their work. With the ability of the latest iPhones to film spatial content, it’s surprising that so little NSFW spatial content exists, or at least is easy to find online. The new platform hopes to change that and it appears off to a good start, with a number of different creators uploading their work and already enough videos uploaded to arrange content into categories such as cosplay or kissing. Spatial videos can be played not only on the Apple Vision Pro, but also the Meta Quest 3. Membership currently costs just $14.99, and just $4.99 for the first month.

Business Insider Asks Where Are the Promised Sex Robots?

We’ve been waiting for sex robots for a long time now, and despite a lot of excitement around a decade ago, we’ve been stuck largely with talking smart dolls. Business Insider decided to take an in-depth look at the reasons why, with weight and lack of mobility being key factors. I summarized the reasons given in the article here. The article is already a little out-of-date, as just a couple of weeks after it appeared, the Chinese company UBTech launched “companion” robots that can walk.

Over Half of Grok’s Traffic is Adult-related

Over half of Grok’s traffic is now adult-related it was widely reported last month. This includes pornographic images, videos, roleplay chats, or other adult content, causing some of Elon Musk’s obsessed detractors to label Grok AI as a porn platform. Musk has been far more tolerant of spicy AI content than any of his big tech AI rivals, and has faced a huge backlash and a tide of legal problems for doing so.

UK teen boys choosing AI girlfriends over real relationships

The New York Post reports that a survey has discovered that teenage boys in the UK are choosing AI girlfriends over real relationships, with an “expert” opining that this will have disastrous consequences. No, he’s not referring to the end of hoeflation, but disastrous consequences for the boys.

The study, conducted by Male Allies UK, surveyed 1,000 boys aged 12 to 16 and found that a hefty 85% of them have spoken to a chatbot, 20% know a peer who is “dating” an AI chatbot, and over a quarter prefer the attention and connection of a bot partner to a real, human-to-human relationship.

More than half — 58% — said AI relationships are easier because they can “control the conversation.”

As disconcerting as the research is, experts say the appeal of AI relationships, which offer ceaseless response and zero rejection, is clear.

“AI validates, affirms, never tires, never pushes back. For an adolescent boy still assembling a sense of self, that kind of frictionless attention can feel like intimacy,” Nicholas Velotta, head of relationship research at Arya, told The Post.

Velotta points to the clear lure of AI for Gen Alpha guys, a demographic navigating two conflicting cultural narratives about masculine identity.

“On one side, they’re told that to be a man is to dominate, to “looksmaxx,” to project an alpha status. On the other hand, they’re told that men are the architects of most of what’s gone wrong in our gender dynamics, and that the appropriate response is to sit down, be quiet, and make space.”

According to Velotta, AI offers a sense of safety for young men trying to reconcile and define themselves within these impossible extremes.
