MIT Researcher Fears Sex Robot Subliminal Advertising

Well this is certainly a different take on the ‘threat’ of sex robots. While most focus on how we will ‘exploit’ sex robots, or at least exploit women through sex robots, this researcher raises the possibility that they may exploit us – through the manipulative use of advertising during our most passionate moments with them.

MIT Media Lab researcher Kate Darling, an expert on tech ethics and the relationships and interactions between humans and robots, warned The Guardian that the way we talk and think about robots today — as attempts to recreate humanity — opens us fleshy humans up to being manipulated or taken advantage of.

“I worry that companies may try to take advantage of people who are using this very emotionally persuasive technology,” Darling told The Guardian. “For example, a sex robot exploiting you in the heat of the moment with a compelling in-app purchase. Similar to how we’ve banned subliminal advertising in some places, we may want to consider the emotional manipulation that will be possible with social robots.”

This is certainly a novel take on the subject, and one that might one day become a valid concern. There are also possible privacy issues with the company behind the sex robots harvesting the intimate conversations with your robot partner.

Although there was something of a gender gap, over 50% of female respondents also claimed to watch VR porn on a regular basis.
