    An old Futurama episode (“I Dated a Robot”, 3ACV15, season 3, episode 15) made a pretty interesting argument against dating robots: it produces a negative externality, in that if you can easily get whatever you want with robots there’s no incentive to do anything productive or worthwhile, as most of what we do is motivated by the desire for sex.

    (In case links don’t work, google “futurama don’t date robots”.)
