Futuristic Fembot "Jia Jia" Is One of the Most Sexist Robot Creations Yet

So weird
source article
Quote:
Meet Jia Jia. She smiles when men speak, calls men "lord" and tells men how to take more flattering photos of her. She's one of the most realistic humanoid robots ever made — and one of the most subservient, too (second only to this dude's $50,000 Scarlett Johansson clone and, you know, actual sexbots).
The future of robotics is dominated by men bringing their fantasies to life, and the next generation of humanoids is shaping up to be a silicone load of sexist bullshit.
A robot research and development team at the University of Science and Technology of China spent three years developing Jia Jia. It can speak with realistic lip movement, make facial expressions and move its body, according to team director Chen Xiaoping, as reported by Xinhuanet.
Jia Jia also knows a thing or two about selfies. "The photos taken from your angle will make my face appear bigger," it says in a video report from New China.
Quote:
And, "Yes, my lord. What can I do for you?"
Quote:
Jia Jia's mouth is saying, "Yes, my lord," but her eyes are saying, "Please, God, help me." Source: YouTube
In the years the team took developing Jia Jia, it didn't seem to occur to them that these statements could be problematic, portraying women with low self-confidence or in a subservient role.
"Considering the amount of resources that went into bringing this modern marvel to 'life,' that's the last thing I would expect an advanced humanoid female robot to communicate to me," Katie Aquino — aka Miss Metaverse, founder of BodAi — told Mic in an email. "Developing advanced humanoid robots comes with a responsibility to elevate humanity rather than perpetuate outdated and harmful stereotypes."
Robotics, even humanoid ones, can provide positive services. They can help senior citizens, hospital patients and kids with autism. This is not the case with Jia Jia. Instead, this robot is portrayed as a self-conscious and subservient "goddess," according to Xinhuanet — its positive influence on society remains to be seen.
Quote:
This is similar to what we saw in the probably Scarlett Johansson robot, a humanoid robot a man modeled after a Hollywood actress for no other purpose other than to bring a fantasy to life through modern tools. Modern tools alone don't make something modern — especially if it exhibits a backward or offensive point of view.
"Tech entrepreneurs have a responsibility to bring joy and ease to people's lives through their inventions," Aquino said.
Stay tuned: I'll be creating my own male robot in the coming weeks: a giant dick with biceps that says "fuck the patriarchy" on command.
Thoughts? Also sorry if this was posted already but I had not seen it yet.

They need to work faster. I want an affordable sex bot before I need Viagra.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

Creepy! Probably sex robots will be common within most of our lifetimes, however. Everyone will have at least one stuffed into their closet. And everybody will feel really awkward and guilty about it. People who don't like to do routine cleaning and maintenance will have really disgusting sex robots.

You see, no one would be offended by that because unlike femnazis we have a sense of humour.
Seriously doubt she'd know what the business end of a soldering iron is though.

I will admit the "yes lord" part is pretty creepy and I see how it could be considered sexist. Like you said though I doubt anyone would complain about the opposite.
A male robot saying "yes queen" would probably not bother anyone... Damn bull shit double standards we have to deal with these days.

I think I'll get by with 3. 1 to blow me while I watch other two fuck. I want the full on version though, not some crappy robot with plastic skin and a glorified fleshlight built in. I want one like in the show Humans. I won't be hiding them in the closet either. Judge me all you want. Unlimited blow jobs and she brings me food afterwards without a second thought.

They shouldn't be built for the purpose of replacing a wife but rather only for men who were never able to get married and are now at a stage where they lived their whole life single and need at least something.

I wonder if more inventions like this will slow down our reproduction rate over time...
That would be a pretty awesome side effect

Oh wow that would be some wierd shit. If you have enough money to buy one of those, then you have problems if you can't get a real woman.
