Zombie Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 this British movie, released tomorrow in the UK, deals with A.I. and the Turing Test. Here's the IMDB synopsis Caleb, a 24 year old coder at the world's largest internet company, wins a competition to spend a week at a private mountain retreat belonging to Nathan, the reclusive CEO of the company. But when Caleb arrives at the remote location he finds that he will have to participate in a strange and fascinating experiment in which he must interact with the world's first true artificial intelligence, housed in the body of a beautiful robot girl. So, what exactly makes a computer / A.I. female? Or male? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0470752/ 3 Link to comment
Sasha Distan Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 the presence of tits? and the fact that no one is yet brave enough to release a major sci-fi motion picture with a gay theme. 3 Link to comment
Mann Ramblings Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I think it would be more interesting if the A.I. were an attractive male. Otherwise, it's just straight geek porn 4 Link to comment
Uziel Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Typical. God forbid that I major sci do release has a gay theme. Link to comment
MrM Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) Been there done that with 'Weird Science.' I'd even take a remake of Demon Seed except this time its the poor guy who is raped by the machine instead of the lady protagonist. It would be more upsetting for straight men and introduce the element of male rape that made the movie ALIEN so uniquely disturbing.Dammit why aren't I writing these dumb TV Shows???Sorry about the Italics...I can't seem to turn them off for some reason.

Zombie Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) it's gonna be a while before machines are having sex - so, that kinda kicks sexuality into touch. In the meantime, that just leaves the question of gender assignment. Which is presumably more than just sticking a pair of "tits" or "bits" on the thing .

MrM Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Well...we could kind of do what we do in the Gay community. Maybe assign by purpose: Bottom, Top, or Versatile? Link to comment
Zombie Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 yeah, but that's the sex thing again. How can a machine have gender? Link to comment
rustle Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 yeah, but that's the sex thing again. How can a machine have gender? Is it in input or output mode? 2 Link to comment
Arpeggio Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I asked Siri and she said she existed beyond the human concept of gender. 2 Link to comment

Site Administrator wildone Posted January 25, 2015 Site Administrator Share Posted January 25, 2015 I asked Siri and she said she existed beyond the human concept of gender. She was a bit cheeky with me, she replied 'Animals and French Nouns have genders, I do not' 2 Link to comment
Palantir Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 she told me that, 'Gender is in the eye of the beholder'. 1 Link to comment
Sasha Distan Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hubby wants to go and see "Man Who Falls In Love With An A.I. In A Box: The Movie" tomorrow night - so I'll be back with opinions, spoilers and scathing commentary afterwards. Link to comment
Sasha Distan Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 We were very unimpressed, and they got the explanation of the Turing Test wrong. However at one point they did examine the subject of sexuality. Link to comment
Ron Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I envision the whole sexual aspect of A.I. as beginning very similar to the scenario in the movie Her. A movie that I consider underrated. The act of affection, as it is in the movie, is easily seductive, to both. Then, because the A.I. does not truly have the same spark, if you will, as humans do . . . they would grow in a different direction than we. And we could only hope that that direction would not lead to our demise, I'm thinking. Link to comment

Zombie Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 So the android Ava was merely a robotic sex doll. Link to comment
Sasha Distan Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 So the android Ava was merely a robotic sex doll. well... sort of. she turns out to have no empathy at all and *spoilers in white text*>> leaves the main character to starve to death in a locked room after he helps her escape. This is only really possible because of the death of another AI android which makes NO sense, either logistically or within the film. Link to comment
ConquerorQ Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) The film was released quite a long time ago. I wonder how much the attitude of people to robots has changed? Where I heard that they want to create a sex robot.. Let's be honest, it won't be for a while. Because now silicone sex dolls are in great demand. And while there will be demand, there will be supply. Let's be honest, people are running away from relationships now because they don't want problems. I'm no exception. I have been using the services of my submissive sexual partner for a long time (if I may say so) . I ordered it on https://www.ovdoll.com/p/love-dolls/. I saw one comment on the forum. The author said that having sex with a doll is like having sex with a corpse. Come on, man, they look so realistic that once you try it, you won't be able to stop!

BigBen Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Is anyone else here old enough to remember Hymie the robot on Get Smart and Julie Newmar in My Living Doll? Link to comment
