If you count anything with a battery/plug as a robot that may not be too far fetched.

[-] Pirky@lemmy.world 114 points 1 month ago

By that definition, I would say they reached that milestone quite a while ago.

[-] HowAbt2morrow@futurology.today 22 points 1 month ago

Grandpa with a pace-maker is gonna be happy!

But how often do men have sex with robots? I didn't even know we were competing...

[-] don@lemm.ee 31 points 1 month ago

There is no competition, but a shitty tabloid’s gotta make money somehow

[-] Shou@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I suppose vibrators are just a very minimalistic robot. Recon women are in the lead of this competition.

this comment is going to live somewhere in my head for a while i can already tell

[-] casmael@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

Yeah cool it totally lives in my head too, which is at the top of my normal human body where I keep my thoughts like normal human people do

[-] cRazi_man@lemm.ee 61 points 1 month ago

For people not from the UK: The Sun is a bad joke of a publication. I would recommend reading some of their articles if you're in the mood for a good laugh....but I don't really want them to get the clicks.

Now for the sad part: this is one of the most widely circulated news publications in the UK and people seem to read it seriously.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

We've got plenty of Murdoch Press in the States. You don't have to explain what a shitty right-wing tabloid is.

[-] Johanno@feddit.org 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

If "Robot" includes vibrators of all variations this might already be true

[-] zea_64@lemmy.blahaj.zone 35 points 1 month ago

Does that mean my girlfriend is a robot?

[-] Dunstabzugshaubitze@feddit.org 60 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

has she ever harmed a human being, or let a human being become harmed due to inaction?

does she obey orders given by humans that do not lead to humans getting harmed?

does she protect her own existence, unless it would cause harm to human beings?

if you answered "yes" to all of the above, she seems to follows asimovs laws of robotics and thus might be a robot, if you answered "no" to any of the questions:

do you really think companies would put safety meassures into products unless they are forced to?!

[-] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago

Also the 3 laws were specifically designed to have lots of loopholes, otherwise the stories wouldn't exist

[-] yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Just test whether she can harm someone by finding someone who will anger her to such an extent that she will hit them, proving she is no robot.

Small edit because I realized it's not exactly obvious:

This is a reference to a certain chapter in "I, Robot".

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago

A sibling can probably do it easily.

[-] zea_64@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago

Well, she wouldn't harm me, she takes orders from me :3, and she does protect her own existence.

[-] Midnitte@beehaw.org 2 points 1 month ago

What about some ethereal law... like.... what if you took the first law one more step... we could call it the zeroth law!

Throw her in a lake and see if she sinks. /$

[-] zea_64@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago

I already know she's a witch

[-] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 30 points 1 month ago

I can't blame them. Robots won't vote to legislate their fetuses.

Excited for automated Twitter handles to finally receive full enfranchisement.

It's the sun, they are a Murdoch tabloid famous for evading accountability for the shit they cause

One of the many reasons Liverpool is a great city is their unanimous rejection of the paper following the Hillsborough disaster. Reading the sun is a more serious crime than murder there.

[-] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

That's the story of 2016.

[-] spujb@lemmy.cafe 7 points 1 month ago
[-] S_H_K@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Well men stonk stank so any time by now.

[-] Annoyed_Crabby 22 points 1 month ago

[-] tacosplease@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Let us practice!

[-] Leate_Wonceslace@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 1 month ago

I mean, if you count vibrators...

[-] tb_@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Are there "AI" vibrators already?

googles "how to become a robot" furiously

[-] sag@lemm.ee 12 points 1 month ago

As luck would have it I’m selling Become robot in 28 days beginners guide for £29.95 plus Postage and Packaging.

[-] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Simple, use r9k

[-] Nounka@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

So after the 3...2...1... No more happy new year. It is fuckfest25. I m in plx

[-] Arkhive@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 month ago

Amazing!! My time to shine (my chrome plating)

[-] _stranger_@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I've been told I pass as chrome, but I feel like taking advantage of that this coming week would be ethically indefensible.

[-] MiDaBa@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 month ago

Futurama imagined old phone booths would be re-purposed into suicide booths but apparently other services could be offered while on lunch break.

[-] TheBrideWoreCrimson@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 month ago

Data, you are fully functional, aren't you?

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

Want some get some. I'm so tired from my 3 part time jobs I don't even have the energy to take on a 4th one... giving blowjobs

[-] qyron@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

What's the next scare? FFS, people, relax.

[-] HertzDentalBar@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

The robot looks so bored, I feel it bro. We're just tools for some people.
