Move over Apple, Tesla and Google. There’s a company on the outskirts of San Diego which could make your achievements seem pedestrian.
Abyss Creations, which has been selling sex dolls for the past 20 years, has now created a voice activated sex robot with all the right answers (eg Do you want to walk? “I don’t want anything but you.”) Â Made of pliable silicone and injected with artificial intelligence, the big breasted, slim waisted doll called Harmony is being dubbed as the future of mankind’s most desired activity.
A couple of facts amazed me in a piece The Guardian published after visiting Harmony and her makers. First that there’s a roaring market in high tech sex dolls costing from $4,500 to $50,000. And secondly the industry in them, called sex tech, is already worth $30bn a year and even hosts conventions. Ever since some geek read Stepford Wives, the world has apparently never been the same.
