So many people are led by the pleasure trap and satiating their lower consciousness baser carnal physical desires that they don't want to put in the time, effort, energy, determination, dedication and persistence to find someone and make a relationship work. Human relationships will take a hit when your main motivation is sex, and not human contact or connection. Why bother trying to get into a relationship with someone when you can more easily just get off by paying for it, either form another human or using a sex doll or sex robot...

you have a point but when you are actually coming out of a relationship ? when you actually are over a long term toxic relationship ? the last thing you want is another one. but yet you still want a sex life and all the arguments in what I have quoted from your article become a challenge that many male/female won't try to achieve if there is a solution like AI robot partners.
men or women can be quite traumatised from relationships that would lead them to use such services.
IMO, society put a lot of pressure on females from a very young age, to look a certain way to be attractive with their look good attitude. The consumerism society and marketing strategies have built an empire of beauty products, perfumes, fashion closes, hair styles etc... on girls, pushing them to look a certain way to achieve happiness and success.
Boys on the other hand are pressured to act a certain way avoiding any contact with their feminine side or studying "feelings" in a manhood perspective, sexuality for boys is all related to what their penis says.

How many ppl use drugs (legal or illegal) to escape reality, jobs, family dramas, religion, state rules, death, schools, shopping malls ? You live in a not so healthy world of relationships between humans and relationship with the earth altogether, your arguments might apply for you and I do understand where you coming from with this, it's sick but that's what a lot of ppl are.

A song like "I'm in love with the shape of you" is the stereotypical symptom of what I am talking about here, and therefore when a song makes a hit like this I'm not surprise to read that one day a AI robot could be your sexual and even emotional partner, and imagine now that the AI wants to experience sexual intercourse with a human ? and what about AI<>AI orgies that would change the porn industry for ever. Fancy a 3some with my robot do you ?

Talking about porn, it's a huge activity online, alongside money games.
To me many healthy people are out there but for some reason they are not necessarily active online, many ppl with an healthy mind find their reality away from screens, healthy kids find their childhood outside not watching mainstream propaganda, listening superficial "shape of you" like songs, but I'm going to stop here before someone start labelling me as a hippy.
