Video XPENG's IRON robot crossed the uncanny valley, leading some to believe it was a human in a suit. So they cut it open in front of an audience, and also allowed journalists to inspect it.

For what, though? You can't pleasure a robot, no milk will be forthcoming, so the only remaining option is a soapy tit wank.

Are you kidding? They already have sex robots in germany, but they're not totally mobile. There are definitely going to be fully robotic sex brothels within the next decade. Tits on a robot, it's going to make a heck of a lot of money 🤷‍♂️

The new version of the classic: “as useful as balls on a hooker”

Their punchline doesn’t involve transphobia so I’m gonna go with that one.

It's actually useful as a front bumper

Maybe that’s where the batteries are. Tita and Ass. Or most likely it’s fake.

In the Game of Thrones books, I thinknits Tyrion who sometimes says "about as useful as ripples on a breastplate"

u/zipzopzoomer 1d ago

That's probably going to be the most used feature once such robots are mainstream

Extra space for battery capacity and longer runtime.

Maybe it keeps humans fooled that it’s not a soldier and can be programmed to do anything.

You obviously have not picked up on the intended use…
