I'm horrified by the possibility, perhaps even a near-certainty, that there probably is fanfic on the internet somewhere outlining how this might happen and what the experience would be like.

wow - that's really possible ... it simply had never crossed my mind but like a catflap - once the idea is explained it stays in.

it makes no difference if it is Justin Bieber or if they send out a signal and tell you it is Justin Bieber, or if you just turn on the machine and think of Justin Bieber.

There's really nothing social to this particularly.

I'm imagining Bieber standing in front of a giant wall of monitors on a huge video conference with thousands of followers. It would be real time and his actions would obviously originate from him.

(Why am I imagining this?!)

haha this is great, the banter around here has been about how this could help fundamentalist mormons be able to have sex with all of their wives in their various houses at the same time. For publicity it would be great to have popular stars like James Deen using the robots to reach out to hundreds/thousands of his fans, or even shoot it in the same room -- have a line up of partners that he can interact with all simultaneously. It works the other way too, a woman could please many men at the same time -- imagine an escort able to line up one hundred 50$ handjobs for the same Wednesday afternoon and she's done working for the month.
