Virtual Porn 3

6.  Going All Gooey

For the travelling executive in need of intimacy or the long-distance couple seeking to let off steam, relief will be found in hi-tech goo. With a few judicious squirts of a bio-gel containing billions of nanobots and a wi-fi connection, mutual orgasm is reached via a layer of shape-shifting ectoplasm.

Of course, the partners at each end of the gel-based romp will only be with each other as the result of a DNA analysis which helpfully narrowed down their choice of a compatible mate to a dozen-strong shortlist. The lucky winner was then selected with the help of a holographic date and a virtual reality snog.

It might sound like the product of an over-excited Silicon Valley brainstorm, or the terrifyingly unerotic plot of the latest Hollywood dystopia, but this is how human love may well look by the middle of the century, according to organizers of a blue skies technology festival.....

From matchmaking which could harness DNA to triage dates according to physical compatibility to all manner of gizmos that allow people to stimulate each other without the  inconvenience of needing to be in the same room, the hope is that the new products will cement happier relationships and achieve more meaningful encounters. Others, however, may look at such progress as an attempt to replace human connection with the ultimate act of reliance on machines......

Eventually sex toys may come in liquid rather than solid form with the development of gels containing microscopic robots which each partner would apply to their erogenous zones and use to stimulate one another as the nanobots respond to instructions sent over the internet......

But for all the desire to embrace a brave new world of technologically tooled-up love and sex, researchers warn it must be underpinned by debate about ethics and morality.

Critics have voiced concern that as the technology becomes more attuned to human needs - robot prostitutes have been predicted by 2050 - people will be increasingly tempted to forego the trouble of forming relationships.

A more pressing concern, however, is the transfer of criminal or potentially criminal practices - paedophilia, stalking or rape role plays - into areas such as VR.
