That's not what I worry about. I worry that robots won't want to have sex with us.

Or by an off-by-one error in the programming they will want to too much, and skynet will evolve into a co-ed army of insatiable nymphomaniac terminators.

I reckon this could also be a key element in an awesome cyberwar thriller.

[In cavernous command center. Yellow emergency lights spinning.]

Dispassionate female announcer: "Online systems failing. Loss of firewall integrity in [three] minutes."

General: Dammit! We're losing this cyber-battle. We have only one option left. Corporal! Prepare to initiate contingency plan...LITTLE BUNNY FOO FOO!

Let me know if they need a creative consultant. :-)

Even something as outlandish as that has been already envisioned by the extremely offensive Sexy Losers comic.

This is potentially NSFW, so proceed with caution: http://sexylosers.com/199.html (WARNING: If you browse any of the other comics in the archive, you will soon encounter 100% NSFW material.)

Right, stay away from the "Bubba 2000" model unless you want to use him as an enforcer, twisted prank or house guardian.

ETA: What? You find it annoying when my dog humps your leg? Just wait until you meet my robot.
