Look at health care and at the\u00a0hospitality sector, where robots support employees in their daily routines. In health care\u00a0robots also actively interact with patients. Science fiction films take this a step further by\u00a0exploring the idea of intimate relations, as in <em>Ex Machina<\/em> and <em>Her<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Where are we heading? Will we really have intimate relations with a robot? Various studies\u00a0show that we may even marry robots by 2050. Currently, we are already used to having an\u00a0emotional bond with virtual persons, e.g. with Microsoft\u2019s chatbot Xianco. Millions of Chinese\u00a0people share everything with this virtual comrade.<\/p>\n<p>The success of Realdolls also proves that humanity is able to have an emotional bond with\u00a0an inanimate object. At this moment a team of experts from different fields is working on\u00a0humanizing the Realdolls. Artificial intelligence and nano technologies can make robots look\u00a0and act like real humans.<\/p>\n<p>Research has been done into what we think about sex with a robot. Men appear to be more\u00a0positive about it than women. Technological developments would enable humankind to have\u00a0sexual experiences with sex robots as early as 2025, and as time goes by the experiences\u00a0will appear more and more genuine. Various futurologists claim that by 2050 there will no\u00a0longer be a difference between human relations and human-robot relations, and this will be generally accepted in society.<\/p>\n<p>Scientists are also critical of the developments. This sort of robot will negatively affect how\u00a0we see inter-human relations. On the other hand, robots can reduce unwanted pregnancies,\u00a0adultery and sexually transmitted diseases.<br \/>\nBefore all this becomes reality much research still has to be done and multidisciplinary teams\u00a0have much work ahead of them. These teams will consist of engineers, ICT specialists,\u00a0beauticians, materials experts, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Can we halt these developments? The industry is currently working very hard on robotics because there is a multi-billion- euro market for it. The main thing is to make robots safe and\u00a0reliable for their users, and the quality of the products is once again priority number one.\u00a0Educating top-quality engineers in the technical connections industry is PIEK\u2019s core\u00a0business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robots play an ever more important role in our daily  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":18392,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[229],"tags":[231],"class_list":["post-18387","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-future"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Relation with a robot: only in science fiction films? - PIEK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Where are we heading?
