I have been following these reports about the robots that have been designed to look like beautiful women. Dave Barry and Matt Drudge have posted about this as well. One is a copy of Scarlet Johannson, which creeped me out enough. Couldn’t she sue the inventor for stealing her image? But now the second one, who looks Chinese, holds her head in a submissive manner, and addresses her male creators as “my lord.” There was a recent post on Salon.com by Jennifer Seaman Cook, “From Siri to sexbots: Female AI reinforces a toxic desire for passive, agreeable and easily dominated women”
My lord, indeed!

Yikes! I had not heard of these robots but it’s pretty creepy, if you ask me!

All I can say is I hope all the Al submissive robots do the same – kill their creator. OMG this is sick beyond sick!

This is disgusting beyond measure! It’s bad enough that many women in this world are treated so badly, but they have a mind and can fight back. However, the robots are programed and they will have no power except for what is given to them. (guess what kind of power the women will have! ) This is very degrading to women.

These guys may be very smart about technology but I think they are really not mature and probably would like a girl friend like their robots. Talk about objectifying women!
