China building Child Sex Robots to ship to Pedophiles in Western Countries

China is mass-producing millions of child sex robots equipped with AI chat-bots, targeting pedophiles in Western countries, like within the EU, Canada and the USA, as revealed by recent reports from Chinese sex doll factories.

These factories are experiencing a surge in demand, with eerie images showcasing the lifelike toys in production.

The disturbing visuals highlight the evolution of this industry, showing how manufacturing has advanced from basic silicone dolls to sophisticated anthropomorphic robots over recent years.

The realistic features of these AI-driven bots, designed to cater to illicit demands, have raised serious ethical and legal concerns globally.

Dailymail.co.uk reports: WMDoll, one of China’s biggest sex doll makers, has said it is expecting a record 30% jump in sales this year thanks to its adoption of generative AI tools like ChatGPT.

It makes the dolls more responsive and interactive, which offers users a better experience, the company’s founder and chief Liu Jiangxia told the South China Morning Post.

Unlike traditional sex dolls, those installed with AI capabilities are designed to speak back to the user. WMDoll says it can make dolls with about eight different ‘personalities’ to choose from, which are capable of continuing a conversation started a few days earlier.

The company fits its dolls with an AI tool which is designed to pander to its partner’s ego and which can be programmed to ask questions about their ‘relationship’ and about the user’s feelings.

In the past, these dolls primary function was to satisfy users sexual needs. But as their physical features such as head and joint movements and skin became more realistic, our customers started to seek emotional companionship in the dolls.

She said that was when the firm decided to introduce large language models into its products, allowing the dolls to react to users verbally.

The company started used AI in its dolls in 2016 and the technology has been improving thanks to open source AI, which has helped to make them cheaper.

Dolls are often made with thermoplastic which is heated to 37C to reflect a human’s body temperature and developers say these perverse dolls have body sensors that also make them feel human-like.

Another manufacturer, Shenzhen Atall Intelligent Robot Technology based in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, previously said that most of its clients are 40 to 50-year-old men that come from Europe and the USA.

Users can order custom-made AI dolls which cost around $3,000 (£2,000) each and have soft and elastic skin made from rubbery plastic that contain less oil content than normal plastics and do not smell.

US customers are said to like dolls with darker skin and large breasts, buttocks and genitals while Chinese customers go for for Asian features with small, hairless genitals, the company said.

Most shockingly, the firm is selling child-size AI sex robots, both male and female, and the biggest market for them is reportedly in the USA and Canada.

However, the perverse fetish for child-like dolls is nothing new, with police raids around the globe in recent years leading to dolls being seized and perverted users arrested.

The robots’ bodies are made from modified thermoplastic elastomers (TBE) with a metal skeleton and they are around half the weight of normal human beings. The company says they have anti-electric shock, anti-fire and anti-explosion measures.

The robot’s eyes, lips and head move and they speak English and Chinese, developers say. Flexible joints mean the dolls can be positioned in a variety of poses for display as well as sexual acts.

The company also produces custom-made AI sex robots which sell for $9,400 (£7,000). So far two have been ordered by men who wanted them based on the image of their wife who had passed away.

Around 70% of these customers also ask for hair on the dolls’ genital area.

Male sex robots are also sold but they are nine times less popular than female robots, according to manufacturers. On Chinese social media, some say the products reinforce sexist stereotypes or endorse paedophilia.

When sex robots become more technologically advanced, will men prefer to use them instead of respecting human wives?’ one commenter on the Twitter-like Weibo platform wrote.

Meanwhile others, calling themselves ‘friends of dolls’, share user reviews and advice on dedicated online forums.

The material is quite good, very soft to the touch. When I hold her I feel very comfortable,’ one anonymous user said in a review of a standard sex doll on e-commerce platform Taobao.

China has previously been estimated to make more than 80% of the world’s sex toys, with over a million people employed in the country’s $6.6 billion industry.

Prominent Chinese feminist Xiao Meili thinks that some men will always have outdated expectations and ‘sex housewife robots’ might actually help women.

A lot of men want the same for women: sex, housework, childbirth and filial piety. They don’t think of women as individuals, Xiao told AFP. If every nerd buys a sex doll for himself… that would free a lot of women from these kind of men?

There’s different companies making them some went bankrupt cause of fraud. Ironically some of these silicone sex dolls we’re originally created as school teachers or greeting bots, but their body and faces later were also sold as sex-dolls.
