Here is the stark unrequited reality. In China alone there are 300 thousand more men than women and the men there are forced to import wives from Vietnam and the Philippines or compete against the highest bidder to buy a wife from a Chinese family if the suitor happens to meet their standards! Thanks to the one child policy and Chinese male chauvinism, women have become scarce in ratio to unmarried men. In other countries ravaged by war, disease, or poverty, the ratio of available women to men has become a deciding factor. Today a man has limited options thanks to the laws in which courts are no longer concerned with fault over marriage it is simply a matter of community property division and that can only happen within a two year period if a separation has been underway.

Not very promising prospects

Men who have been divorced later in life have little chance of remarrying or meeting up to the present standards of society’s myopic views that minimize the value of middle aged men, so the market becomes skeletal and unattainable. What’s the alternative? Dating sites full of fake profiles or AI responses? Prostitution, or “Hook ups” as they are now called? It is a pathetic and unfair alternative for American and western men. The only other way as Grant Cordone, a billionaire real estate guru admits, making your first million is bound to improve your love life! Sadly, he’s probably right. A man must buy his way into a committed relationship if relationships have failed for him in the past.

One possible answer

There is an inevitable alternative in all this, and it’s not rubber inflatable sex dolls or masturbation to pornography. The latest generation of AI humanoid female robots is fast becoming a reality. With the use of platinum silicone, latex, or what is called, bionic silicone which is a life like fusion of human cells and artificial material capable of making goosebumps, and even healing itself from minor cuts and wounds, the realistic feel of the flesh can be attained. Add to this a breathings and internal heating mechanism, and you have an amazing replicate! However, it goes much further than that.

Quest for the perfect replica

There are three basic approaches to building humanoid robots that are life-like, capable of intelligent conversation, and even as a sexual partner, that’s right even an intimate capability! 1) Is the traditional servo motor mechanically actuated movement with a metallic or fiber glass skeleton frame having Lidar sensors, and a rechargeable battery, encased in realistic artificial flesh! 2) This is a three D printing approach that fabricates the skeleton and even other parts of the body for a very true reproduction of a human-like appearance and feel. 3) Is already underway. The creation of artificial organs, muscles, and circulatory system using water or hydraulic fluid to power muscles that work just like real musculature, but that’s not all! This humanoid robot will have a complete neural system that works just like the nerve network in humans. Much of the tissues within this robot will be a marriage of biological cells and composite material! Movement will be smooth and life-like while a heart pumps and lungs actually breathe! The day of the Blade Runner type of replicate humanoid will shortly be upon us!

Unpacking your mate

Equipped with Artificial Intelligence this manmade companion will be constantly learning at a rate that far exceeds human beings! So, say, you get your robot out of the box, so to speak, and you begin teaching and training this sentient machine to behave as you wish, to attend to your needs, to respect you, and to have the security of a dedicated partner that doesn’t cheat, talk back, envy others for material wealth or position, and doesn’t lie to you. At least that’s what the plan is intended to achieve. Can Artificial Intelligence be trusted to do all these things without learning too well? That’s a question that the programmers and engineers must answer for the consumer before the final package is placed in the market for use.

The market is wide open

There is no doubt a need for robotics not only as industrial assemblers, or mannequins for receptionist type duties, kitchen and restaurant labor, but also as hospital personnel, company for the elderly in old folks homes, as we have found, families are not necessarily that accommodating to the elderly these days unless they possess large estates with financial assets. For the typical middle class American loneliness toward the end of life is a sad reality if one is divorced or loses a spouse to accident or natural causes, and a robotic helper could do much to relieve that condition.

The future-food for thought

Imagine the day when robots will blend seamlessly within society and collaborate with people on an equal level. Will they be so sophisticated that they will be undetectable? Will there be some form of being able to identify them for safety or situational awareness considerations? Will programming be able to evert any unforeseen complications such as robots developing self-awareness and then be offended over their role in society and if they actually have rights? One might think that these considerations might be premature or a bit hasty, but just like Artificial Intelligence which, some believe, is about to create the “Singularity “could humanoid robots unwittingly become part of that scenario?
