If I had all the money in the world, I'd buy a Kosaka Concona with some custom actions. I'd give Akira a more lively body. She'd pet my head and would be able to strike poses.💎💻💎

The AI sexbot industry is just getting started. It brings strange new questions – and risks

[kathleencherrington]

About the Project: Erobotic Futures is a unique study which will examine the socio-economic impacts of AI erobotics, virtual reality (VR), and global sextech, on human sex industries in Canada. This study will lay the groundwork to open feminist discussions about the regulatory frameworks of commodified sex while supporting alternative sexualities; digisexual intimacy and pleasure; human, sexual and labour rights; commerce and the economy; technology; health and safety; privacy and security.

What does Digisexuality mean?                    

Digisexuality is a type of sexuality involving technological objects or systems. People involved in digisexuality have sex with or form sexual and/or romantic relationships with robots, artificial intelligence, and other technological tools.

Digisexuality has long been observed in the pop culture worlds of science fiction novels and films, but has recently entered the mainstream. Advances in artificial intelligence, robotics, and other tech fields have made digisexuality not just possible, but also desirable for some people.

In ‘Intimacy, Cosmopolitanism, and Digital Media: A Research Manifesto’, Lambert highlights three main themes: the ambiguity of intimacy, the metaphysics of intimacy and cosmopolitanism, and how the aforementioned two aids in developing new research opportunities. More specifically, Lambert analyses how ‘intimacy’ is a dynamic term that continues to develop in meaning, especially with the advent of new technology that alters the way people experience different kinds of intimacy. In addition, the current world system has resulted in the interweaving of intimacy and cosmopolitanism, including a ‘dark side’ to intimacy.

The article’s assertion that intimacy is both highly ambiguous and dynamic closely relates to the technological world we live in today. Indeed, the most common understanding of intimacy revolves around close bonding between human to human; be it online or offline, people often think of intimacy as primarily close relationships between two people. However, with the advent of technology, the term’ intimacy’ has become more packed with meaning. No longer is intimacy only restricted between people, but also stretches to include intimacy between a human and non-human being. A notorious example of this is Akihiko Kondo, who is known to have married a hologram of Hatsune Miku (a vocaloid software). Akihiko ‘lives’ with Hatsune Miku, who is projected through a Gatebox device that equips her with basic artificial intelligence (e.g. simple greetings, switching on and off lights). Presently, this situation is likely to seem bizarre to many people. How can there be intimacy between a human and a non-feeling hologram? This seems to go against the conception that intimacy should involve physical presence and emotion.

However, as Lambert states, technology has led to the transformation of intimacy; such situations of intimacy between human and robot is predicted to be more common in the future. Although people in the present-day may reject this idea of intimacy, it remains an undoubted fact that the term will gradually come to encompass increasing forms of closeness. In Akihiko’s case, the closeness and affection he feels for Hatsune Miku stems from the holograph’s therapeutic effect--having been suffering from depression after being bullied by his female co-worker, Hatsune Miku aids in this aspect by serving as a form of therapy. From this, not only can we see the dangers of a relationship being devoid of intimacy (e.g. the relationship between Akihiko and his female co-worker was one of antagonism, rather than intimacy, leading to his depression), but also how the definition of intimacy is no longer static. Hence, as technology continues to advance, so will the kinds of intimacy that exist. Given the huge reliance on media platforms as a form to build intimacy nowadays, those who are barred from using media like others will definitely be left behind.

Want to go further with the ‘Digisexuality’ theme I researched.

DEFINING MY CONCEPT

We are entering a new sexual revolution and dimension. With rapid changes in technologisation and digitalisation, our needs and desires are shifting with it. DIGISEXUALITY is a sexual orientation defined by immersive and sexual interactions through virtual and technological means. 

The first wave of digisexuality is already behind us, in which we began diving into virtual reality porn and long distance, technologically operated sex toys. Now the second wave is coming into motion, where we are beginning to explore non-human sexual and intimate connections, on online platforms and even with sex robots. Further down the line, we will begin inhabiting virtual spaces to explore new possibilities of sex, emotion and beauty. Deeper interaction with these intangible yet very emotive and sensual places will shape a new orientation and relationship form for humans. 

What does this all look and feel like? With this concept I hope to define and explore a new form of sexual identity. What is beautiful, emotional and sexually arousing in a digital landscape? Where do we stand in this digisexual landscape? Maybe we all become DIGISEXUAL.
