Abstract

Sexbots have been the subject of much prurient curiosity for all of the adult population. The scepticism about the extent of human interaction in the future has created ambiguity about the prospects of the flesh trade industry all over the world. The evolution of sexbots from animatronic models to sentient beings capable of decisionmaking ability would pose a fundamental question about their impact on human rights and the obstacles it would create for the people employed in this sector. The ethico-legal constraints about their replacements as sex workers for utilitarian purposes evaluate the boundaries of acceptable sexual practices. With the advent of artificial intelligence in robotics, these customizable simulacra capable of human affection explore the pragmatic question of their legal personality. This paper analyzes the intersectionality of artificial intelligence and robotics in the light of ethical limits and legal implications on human rights. It imposes a duty on humans to address the permissible limits of customizability and the sufficiency of the existing legal framework to minimize the sufferings of these sentient beings. The complexities involved in the controversial facet of human-robot relationship entail us to gauge upon the jurisprudential aspects of the rights and legal personality of these robots.

Summary

Introduction

The unprecedented situation of the COVID-19 crises has caused us to debate the future operations of businesses whilst limiting the interaction among humans. The advent and accessibility of technology have facilitated the transition to the telework culture which has reduced the impact of the economic upheaval without affecting the efficiency of the employees This advancement of robotics and artificial intelligence has even transcended the fields of an ordinary employment and has further integrated robots into. The characterization of the relationship between humans and inanimate robots would depend on the consensual nature of the intimate acts involved The impact of these relationships remains highly ambiguous and requires an examination of the cultural background and its acceptance in jurisdictions all across the world. The sex dolls advertised in the 1960s were available for purchase through mail, were inflatable with air and consisted of necessary orifices for penetration They were not sustainable for long use because of the material used for their formation.
