 | "Levy argues that psychologists have identified roughly a dozen basic reasons why people fall in love, "and almost all
 of them could apply to human-robot relationships. For
 instance, one thing that prompts people to fall in love are
 similarities in personality and knowledge, and all of this
 is programmable. Another reason people are more likely to
 fall in love is if they know the other person likes them,
 and that's programmable too."
 
 Ok, that is seriously just pathetic. This Levy guy is so up
 his own ass that he doesn't realize part of the joy in a
 girl liking you is knowing that she likes you for who you
 are, NOT BECAUSE SHE WAS PROGRAMMED TO DO SO. This Levy guy
 has so little concept of what it is to be loved by the
 opposite sex, it's no wonder he spends all his time trying
 to make this a reality. I feel terribly sorry for any person
 who is so socially crippled that he feels his last hope for
 for a girlfriend is a machine.
 
 This could be their slogan: "Hey, are you absolutely
 talent-less and utterly boring?!? Do you pride yourself in
 having the conversational skills of a Speak and Spell? Do
 you constantly find yourself wishing your playstation 3 had
 a vagina because girls are repulsed by you? No problem, why
 bother trying to improve yourself as a human being when we
 can program this hunk of scrap metal to love you like your
 own mother almost did!? Own one today!"

 | "The main benefit of human-robot marriage could be to make people who otherwise could not get married happier, "people
 who find it hard to form relationships, because they are
 extremely shy, or have psychological problems, or are
 just plain ugly or have unpleasant personalities," Levy
 said."
 
 Ha ha ha! I love how he starts out gently, then culminates
 in that. It could have only been topped if he'd said,
 "Basically, some people are unloveable arseholes."
 
 On the subject of robots looking like people. There's a
 robotocist in america who has already made a robot head of
 his girlfriend that looks really similar. So much so that in
 dim lighting conditions it's difficult to tell them apart.
