People can and do form relationships with inanimate things. The thing doesn't need to feel, it's the person involved that does. Intelligence isn't a requirement, just emotion - and people often have more emotion than is good for them.

Status: offline 		Not surprising. The reality is that some already do form intimate relationships with robots. Consider how similar internet relationships are to that idea.

Scientists at MIT say that by 2030, we will have computers capable of the computing power of the human brain.

A poll last year showed that 64% of married Americans say they would rather spend time with their computer than with their spouse.

Think of how much time people spend online or playing with the computer. And then just think of the possibility that in the future that computer could talk to you and hold an intelligent conversation and then have robots that look human.... I mean this guy's theory may not be all too rediculous once you think about it. People already form relationships with things that are not alive.

I remember when as a kid I'd be watching Captain James T. Kirk telling his computer to do certain things and it did it, and I thought, MAN - that's the future. Now I say, "computer, get me prices and availability for x" and it does it. No matter what I want... okay, sure, so I have to do a little more work than Captain Kirk did, but it's still pretty damn rightous.

"Computer, find me a submissive..."

Just from the advances I've witnessed growing up, it won't surprise me at all when I see artificial intelligence taking on increasing roles in all our lives.
