David Levy, a British artificial intelligence researcher has a Ph.D. thesis at the University of Maastricht in the Netherlands that is kind of – futuristic. “My forecast is that around 2050, the state of Massachusetts will be the first jurisdiction to legalize marriages with robots.” (via primidi.com)
Here are my questions: does one have to pay a compensation when divorcing a robot? what is the definition of a robot? (can i marry my dishwasher?)
Lots of Questions, no answers until my copy of Love and Sex with Robots: The Evolution of Human-Robot Relationships arrives.
