A Japanese-based company Softbank, which has created Pepper the robot, has forced customers to sign a document forbidding its owners from using the humanoid for sexual purposes, as well as creating sexy apps. Even after having paid nearly $2,000 US dollars for the robot, users may have to return Pepper to its makers should they get too personal with the emotional artificial being. The clause reads that Pepper must not be used “for sexual activity and actions for the purpose of indecent acts, or acts for the purpose of meeting and dating and making acquaintance of the opposite sex.”
Incidentally the child-sized robot has already fallen victim to a hacker prank receiving a pair of virtual breasts on its touch screen. The female developer who reprogrammed the robot to shake its hips and moan when its “breasts” are touched and called it Peppai - a mix of the brand name and Japanese word for breasts “oopai” - said she has done it “for the purpose of testing sexual harassment”.
OUR COMMENT:
Slowly slowly, without taking attention, we are arriving to make sex with humanoid's, male or female, it doesn't matter. The last 3 years were the period where the attention of scientists was in developing programs and mechanical structures to arrive of having the real humanoid, ready to do what the human needs. Blades run, 2001 Space odyssey and other films are no more films but almost reality.
