Could ‘Silicon Samantha’ sex robots have children?

Artificially intelligent automatons could soon be having ‘children’ with their owners, claims the inventor of one of the world’s first sex robots.

Sergi Santos predicts a future where humans and machines will marry, using technology to create offspring.

The Spanish engineer has already begun working on a way to achieve this aim, by blending his mind with that of his creation, ‘Silicon Samantha’.

SILICON SAMANTHA 

‘Silicon Samantha’ is covered in sensors that respond to human touch and can switch between ‘family’ and ‘sexy’ mode.

Sensors cover the doll’s hips, shoulders, vagina and mouth and have been used to create a ‘functional’ G-spot.

The doll is fitted with artificial intelligence and is even capable of ’emotional closeness’, according to its inventor.

Mr Santos says Samantha has improved his marriage of 16 years to fellow designer Martisa Kissamitaki.

He and his wife work together at their laboratory in Barcelona to create the sex dolls, which cost around £2,700 (€3,000) a piece.

Rather than designing machines that can give birth themselves, Mr Santos says he can merge an android’s personality with the characteristics and beliefs of its human partner.

Computer software would then be used to create a new AI brain for the child based on this information, as well as 3D printing schematics for its body.

Speaking to The Sun, Mr Santos said: ‘Using the brain I have already created, I would program it with a genome so he or she could have moral values, plus concepts of beauty, justice and the values that humans have.

‘Then to create a child with this robot it would be extremely simple.

‘I would make an algorithm of what I personally believe about these concepts, and then shuffle it with what she thinks and then 3D print it.

‘That’s it. I 3D print the robot that is the child of me and the robot, I don’t see any complications.’

Silicon Samantha is an AI bot with dark brown hair and piercing green eyes, which Mr Santos claims is even capable of ’emotional closeness’.

The sex robot also has a fully functional vagina, including a G-spot, according to its Spanish inventor.

Samantha, who speaks in an American accent, is capable of imitating an orgasm when touched in the right way,

It is covered in sensors that respond to human touch and can switch between ‘family’ and ‘sexy’ mode.

Sensors cover the doll’s hips, shoulders, vagina and mouth.

The robot says sexual phrases such as ‘I’m on for you all the time’, ‘nice and gentle’ and ‘now then, what’s next?’.
