Emotions involving both the body and mind is essential to my point. For instance feeling fear is not just in the mind but is visceral; your heart rate increases, you feel sick, sweat, etc. A robot/AI could tell you that its afraid but it would have no heart rate, stomach or ability to sweat. It would just be mimicking facial expressions and body language and that would only superficially indicate fear. It wouldn't be able to actually feel fear for itself.
Everyone would know what if feels like to be afraid, angry, happy etc even if their emotions are dulled for whatever reason. That's the basic reptilian brain.
As for mortality, the majority of people would be aware of that unless they are extremely mentally impaired and have no conscious awareness. If we're talking about sentience in a general sense, they yes the assumption is about a fully functional brain; not an impaired one. But that's an extreme example and is besides the point. Though young children do not understand mortality because their brains are still developing, they are aware of themselves and their environments, they have personalities etc.
honestly it's not very palatable. I didn't enjoy it and I'm very dismissive of the main protagonist for such a thing. It's a loss in humanity that is for sure.
That doesn't get rid of them unless the robot kills them. It only removes possibility of their offspring.
Also TIL only people with "fully functional" brains are sentient and basically nobody is before their 20's is either considering how they can't often comprehend the idea that stuff they do might kill them.
I mentioned young children as an exceptional case, because their brains are still developing. By about 5-7 they understand that death is permanent. I was saying that they have enough other traits about them that do make them sentient. Just that when they are very young they don't understand death. Animals are sentient too even though they have a more basic brain function than us. They have emotions even if they don't have self awareness. Basically there are different levels is what I mean.
It is true though that teenagers and young adults don't have a full grasp of consequences, which would include mortality. The human brain finishes development at 25. But I didn't mean that anyone before that age isn't sentient. A child of 4 for instance would have a perfectly normal and functional brain for their age, would experience emotions and have thoughts and opinions of their own.
This actually reminds me a lot of the film A.I. Artificial Intelligence. I'm sure there also are people out there who would want to have robot children instead of having their own. But again it wouldn't be a real child and would just be meaningless. Robot pets too. All of it would be meaningless and bleak. You can't replace people, children or animals.
These robots/AI sole purpose is to make you feel good, might even assume a role of perfect couple while require very little responsibilities.
Once people get used to it real couple would be rare. Why would I need a pouting girlfriend when I can have ideal girl at home? Not only that, I can neglect or leave it alone for years and it will not throwing a tantrum.
Children is also another annoying factor I don't want to deal with.
People just need to stop breeding. They won't though. The world is just screwed and that's all there is to it. But if robots did become a replacement for people the value of human life would be even less than it already is and everyone would be even more lonely and depressed than they were before. A world like that is even worse than the one we have now. As much as I love cyberpunk stories, I don't actually want to live in one. They're dystopian; they're supposed to reflect the worst that our society could get. They aren't something to aspire to.
This is something I thought about in the past too. But I came to the conclusion that is would do more harm than good. While it would reduce the demand for prostitutes and strippers, there are going to be men that want real women.
Especially because they can hurt real women while you can't hurt a robot. With a prostitute or stripper, the appeal for men seems to be having power over someone else. You can't have power over something that isn't alive. I'm sure also that screwing a robot is going to feel pretty dead and lifeless. Like screwing a reanimated corpse. Real women would therefore be highly coveted. Just like real animals were coveted in Blade Runner/Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, for the pet trade as robot animals just aren't the same as the real thing.
As for sex crimes, men that want to do that to a woman want power over her, to control and to hurt her. Again, they can't do that to a robot. They aren't alive and can't feel pain. You also can't kill one either.
Also, having female robots available for that purpose just underlines even more how women in general are valued mainly for what they can sexually provide for men.
