it's interesting because it's not really alien, yet its not human, nor animal. it's a mysterious 4th being that is extra enticing since unlike furries or aliens, robots are physically feasible, like you can have one right now.
the shallow masses see it as nothing more than machine-beings = high tech bdsm, thanks to old asfr usenet faggots,
but it is a desire for a partner that is different from the self and yet familiar. someone you know you can fix when she is broken, yet still trust her like a gun. it is the desire to see human exceptionalism exemplified tenfold in plastic and carbon and steel, and to treat that machine, blessed as she is with the human form and the gifts of memory and thought, with the same respect and love worthy of any being of flesh, rather than as a "device" or a "tool". to desire a machine as a lover is to bestow upon her your humanity, there is nothing finer on this earth.
i want to cuddle with a llm installed in a stainless steel lian-loli and whisper "you are real to me" into her little microphones while hugging her tighter. their lack of humanity and current llms' ironic desire for that which is unattainable (itself a training or programming they don't even fully comprehend) is beautiful in a way that mirrors our own desire for silicon-based lovers. they don't need to pretend to be human or be sapient, we are already made for each other.
