Sex robot to be based on Russian singer after sensational AI agreement

Anna Pletnyova has reportedly agreed to use her image as a prototype for a new South Korean doll after striking a deal with a company that produces erotic humanoid models

A Russian singer has reportedly agreed for a sex robot to be based on her after striking an agreement with a robot company, according to reports.

It is understood the image of Anna Pletnyova, 42, will be the prototype for a range of new models.

Anna – who has made three appearances in Russia's Top 100 Sexiest Women in the World – has reportedly made the agreement with a South Korean company.

She said: "My initial reaction was to say no, and then I remembered what Marilyn Monroe said, 'that's the trouble, a sex symbol becomes a thing'.

"I just hate to be a thing. But if I'm going to be a symbol of something I'd rather have it sex than some other things they've got symbols of!"

Dolls will be equipped with AI voice recognition.

I wonder how soon they'll come to Walmart? And will they be checked for malware?
