I'm a little annoyed by calling it 'sex with robots'. It's really just masturbation with an elaborate sex toy. Unsurprising result anyway.

Well, if I was gonna have sex with a robot I'd want it to be at least as smart as a human adult. A purely preprogrammed experience sounds like no fun at all, and if it has intelligence comparable with any member of the animal kingdom that member better be human or I'm gonna feel really weird.
