Didactic Mind, Ep 67: The Robots of Dawn

This week's episode is all about robots! Specifically, it is about how artificial pleasure robots - or sex robots, if you prefer - will affect human demographics, culture, and development. The podcast was inspired by one of the latest books from the vividly imaginative writer, Gary L. M. Martin, whose work I have favourably reviewed in the past. I go over a number of different topics that are of interest and related to the main subject, including:

• What sex robots will do to male-female power dynamics;
• How they will catastrophically impact human demographics;
• The appeal of such artificial pleasures to humans who want perfection but have to deal with imperfection;

... and much, much more.
