RealDoll: sex robots

2021: The start of sales of the sex robot which moves the head, talks and changes a look

In the middle of January, 2021 in shops there was a sex robot who moves the head, talks and changes a look. For production of the most realistic sex dolls in the world the RealDoll company which is based in San Marcos, the State of California uses artificial intelligence technology.

In recent years using AI the RealDoll models learned to keep up the conversation and to execute different movements, but developers do not intend to be satisfied with what has already been achieved. The last model produced by the company by the name of Tanya will cost potential clients $7999. It was created with use "X-Mode", the managed AI system which allows a sex doll to change looks, to move the head and to speak with the owner. On the RealDoll website it is said that the doll can also change gaze direction and blink, "realizing realness of feelings unprecedented still". On the website it is also specified that AI "allows a doll to become the unique personality".

Sex dolls from RealDoll which use AI technology

The representative of RealDoll known under the alias Brick Dollbanger told about the work:

On the right there is a Harmony model, in the center - Tanya, new model which was just produced by Realdoll. The model at the left with long hair is Serenity, it did not leave yet. Now I work with Tanya and Sereniti.

Dollbanger spends almost all the working hours, interacting with AI to estimate possibilities of doll technologies.

I use the application of the developer to be connected to AI managing the doll head. All information obtained as a result of my interaction with AI goes to developers, whether it be just a conversation or consecutive change of emotions. I talk to AI which should learn to learn speech models and to remember features of the speech of the owner.[1]

2020

Improvement of level of realness of sex robots

At the end of October, 2020 the industry of sex robots reached that level of realness that its products take for living people in photos. Incredibly detailed models which the RealDoll company develops since 1996 are delivered with a broad set of the configured options.

For example, the Nova model can be delivered with any of four main types of a constitution and any of five shades of skin. The company states that it can add even a freckle. Hair on the head of a doll can be removed and replaced with others, the same can be done with pubic hair, having selected one of four options of a design. Besides, at choice eight flowers of eyes and 24 different shapes of nipples are provided to the user.

Sex robots become more realistic

The RealDoll company usually makes dolls with silicone skin and a steel framework, their cost is about $4000. But the buyer also receives AI managing mimic muscles and voice which can be programmed through the application for the smartphone for additional $8000.

In the book "Sex Robots and Vegansky Meat" the researcher Jenny Gleeman assumed a number of the main changes which we can expect in the field of sex entertainments as a result of development of technologies. For example, sex robots can become so convincingly realistic that many will prefer their company to the relations with these people.

Thanks to sex robots such relations in which desires and fetishes of only one person matter are possible. If such person gets used to the relations with a doll without free will, without independent ambitions, ez unpleasant relatives and friends, then the relations with real people and empathy to these persons can become for him too difficult task. In it I see danger of sex robots to future society.[2]

The start of sales of the sex robot which can conduct conversations and studies. The price is $15,500

At the end of July, 2020 sales of the sex robot who can conduct conversations began and study. The new silicone dolls using artificial intelligence worth $15,500 - the ambitious project of the Californian firm RealDoll which demanded five years of research and development in the field of artificial intelligence and the animatroniki.

The owner and the CEO of RealDoll company Matt McMullen provided the first model by the name of Harmony which has "20 configured aspects of the personality". The buyer can select five or six of them to create a basis from which AI will make a start further. The doll is also supplied "the system of moods", i.e. can grow dark or even to be offended if the user tries to scoff at it. Besides, the Harmony can quote works by Shakespeare, discuss movies, books and music and also will never forget about a birthday of the owner.

Sales of the sex robot who can conduct conversations started and study

Makmallen claims that at communication the doll learns "all dreams and fears" of the user. According to him, it "will introduce credibility in the relations". Makmalllen hopes that thanks to AI new robots will become not just a sex toy, but also "alternative partners". When the Harmony was asked about its role, she answered:

My main goal - to be a good partner and to bring pleasure and wellbeing. First of all, I want to become the girl of whom you always dreamed.

Discussing as the brain of the robot will "study" therein, Makmallen noticed that AI will study through interaction with people and the outside world. The robot can explain some facts, she will remember them, and they will become a part of her basic knowledge. The RealDoll company works meanwhile on the system of computer vision which will allow sex dolls to recognize people using a sensing technology of persons. Also the general system of a body which will include means of heating and a set of sensors which will allow Harmony to feel touches is developed.^[3]
