Given the number of social losers, nerds, Aspergers, and just plain unbearable people in the software biz, I expect they'll be devoting most of the industry's energies to "perfecting' this contraption. I predict fembots will be a top priority. They and their critics will be talking past each other, as the things someone like me would object to or find most uncomfortable and/or silly will be those qualities which the computer dudes most need and want from the device. We will divide into two groups, those who desire human contact, and those incapable of handling it. We're right on the edge of a social shift.
