I think the tantric side of Daoist mysticism/alchemy has semen retention as a way of preserving vital energy, but... as to whether that has its own terminology or not I am also not going to investigate.
I did read a few cultivation webnovels a while ago, and I recall a few jokes to the effect of "The great sage has been furiously seeking immortality in his cave for days now".
I don't think that actually follows. We'd certainly be in a position to practice and refine the process, but not necessarily guarantee that it's working until we give the (apologies for the Harry Potter reference, but I think it apt) Robot House Elf a pistol and turn around. Also, ethics.
Luckily the simple solution is to just not make a sapient slave race, robotic or otherwise. Sapience isn't necessary for an autonomous tool.
