RE: Already Here
Ahhh, how could I have forgotten to add Blade Runner to my list? I think it would be inevitable for sex-bots to be that realistic, because people would demand more and more tactile realism and inter-"personal" response.
As for the latter part, yeah, I think that's where I was going with where this could be good. My premise is that ONE of the factors that drive deviants like molesters and rapists to victimize others is lack of outlet due to self-repression that suddenly and violently ruptures with the need for furtive, covert expression, fear of rejection, etc. I've heard it said many times that rape is not a sexual act, it's a violent act against the victim. Maybe a therapeutic, patient, realistic bot could nurture a screwed up individual back to normal relationships by gradually applying more and more influence toward acceptable behavior.
