You fall deeply in love with a beautiful woman, and you discover that...

[hyperdog]

Let's re-visit this issue in 2116 when androids are everywhere.

Which means that people will actually face this question one day. It's just that you are the first person to face this question, because it happened earlier that you thought it would.

In reality people would face this problem at the same time. It is very unlikely that this level of tech would be created in total secrecy and that it would be roaming free as your girlfriend rather being used as property.

 

[hyperdog]

I don't understand the question but if she isnt a relative and the sex is good then giddy-up.

So your vote is the third option, I think.

Let's say the inventor worked in total secrecty for years (just like the mathematician who proved Fermat's Last Theorem worked on it in total secrecy for years before announcing his proof), and then finally after the fruits of his labour he suddenly dies of a heart attack before he is able to reveal his work to anyone. The android he built then roams around freely, with the memories that he programmed, so the people who discovered the dead inventor's body don't know what he invented. You happen to be the first person she dates and falls in love with.

Sorry I find that these type of hypothetical situations make for good discussions when the creator of the question doesn't have to add a whole bunch of provisions, caveats, explanations etc.

My original answer stands.... if you truly loved the person than it wouldn't matter.

But will you tell her? Maybe letting her know will affect her emotions towards you because she doesn't consider her emotions to be real anymore, or that she is alive even (maybe she will commit suicide because she doesn't consider herself alive or worthy of living).

If she functions like the perfect woman, then who cares?

 

[hyperdog]

If she functions like the perfect woman, then who cares?

But she is not human. You may consider her alive, but is she really? Reproduction is one of the criteria of life, isn't it? Is a computer program, no matter how advanced, really alive?

 

[Born2Star]

But she is not human. You may consider her alive, but is she really? Reproduction is one of the criteria of life, isn't it? Is a computer program, no matter how advanced, really alive?

But what's the definition of human? With your description she's a human for all intend purpose, as in I can call myself an android who functions like a human with love and emotions.

There're are many women who can't have kids but they're human right? For a lot of people's belief we are all created by an inventor.

Valid points, and merging on philosophy now. And actually, for 2 people already, it is irrelevant whether she is truly alive or not, as long as the sex feels human.

 

[oil&gas]

She has no secret. She doesn't even know herself.

Could be a case of Borderline Personality Disorder or something
similar. There is no cure for BPD. But people can live with it.

 

[OnTheWayOut]

if she fucks like a minx and her shit doesn't stink she's a keeper.

Android Lives Matter

 

[MissCroft]

Do androids have feelings in your hypothetical question?

Do androids dream of electric sheep?

 

[spankingman]

Somebody has his tin foil hat screwed on too tight!

 

[waterloodude]

Depends. Am I Kyle Reese and she's a robot sent from the future to stop me from knocking up Sarah Connor? Because I had a thing for Linda Hamilton after seeing her in Terminator. Oh yeah and the saving humanity thing by being John Connor's dad.

And do you think we'll still be using keyboards to search in a web-browser at that time? And will Terb even be around then? Maybe it will be still running on a 386 inside a closet in someone's basement?

 

[franci]

You should have asked:

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

You may need to be 40+ to get the reference.

 

[Aardvark154]

^ and C.C. :wink:

Hyperdog, rather than go out, you have moved me to again watch "Blade Runner".

 

[Brill]

I would tell her she's perfect because she's an android, then ask if she can be upgraded to have a fourth fuck hole.
