The use of artificial intelligence (AI) models has led to an increase in the sale of sex dolls, which has claimed one of the largest toy makers for adults in China. According to a report in South -China Morning PostThe approval of the company of Open-Source AI models has contributed to the improvement of the user experience of its products that lead to a registered jump of 30 percent on sale.
“It makes the dolls more responsive and more interactive, which offers users a better experience,” said WMDOLLS founder and CEO Liu Jiangxia.
The company established in Zhongshan integrates tools such as Chatgpt with its new anthropomorphic sex toys. Shortly after Openai Chatgpt had released in 2022, WMDoll started exploring how the technology could bring a revolution in the sex toys industry.
After a year of development process, Mrs. Liu's team succeeded in sending more than 100 prototypes of his LLM-driven metabox series to customers in North America and Europe.
Although the AI-tools-input sex dolls are more expressive and offering about combating different 'personalities', the traditional sex dolls are limited to simple reactions that make them unable to involve a person. The new dolls can also continue a conversation that started with the user a few days earlier.
Mrs. Liu tackles the concern about the data privacy: “All data is stored locally in the country [where the dolls are used] And we don't have access to them. “

Robot -friend
Last month, a robot, called 'Aria', developed by Realbotix, was unveiled during the consumer electronics show in Las Vegas, which can act as a companion while delivers almost human expressions.
Andrew Kiguel, CEO of Realbotix, said that his company hoped to “not distinguish from people” who can also tackle the male lonely epidemic.
“We take it to a different level that no one else really does,” said Mr. Kiguel. “It can be like a romantic partner. It remembers who you are. It can act as a friend. If you ever saw that film, we try to do that.”
A video from Aria and her facial expressions went viral on social media, which caused a sea of reactions, ranging from fascination to terrible horror about what technology was transformed.
The robot is available to buy for a measly sum of RS 1.5 crore ($ 175,000).
