Honestly to me it just boils down to consent.
Sex normally requires two (or more, I don't judge) consenting adults. That could be anything from lights off missionary to hardcore BDSM, both parties are willing and able participants in the act.

The same thing goes for artists. By making, creating, and posting their art, they're giving the wider public consent to view, critique, and enjoy the art, whether that art be canvas, digital, sculpture, music, dance, anything.

AI art spits in the face of human created art. The AI art "tools" we see today is just mimicry of art that a human has already created. Chances are, that human didn't consent for their art to be used as a knowledge base for the AIs learning period. If the artist consents, I think it's stupid but to each their own.

The same thing applies to sexbots. The AI we see today is not sentient and is barely "intelligent." If/when we get a computer to finally achieve sentence, and we immediately put it into an android for sex work, the ethics is morally questionable at best. We will have created a machine with the sole intention of pleasuring humans sexual needs, and that's all it wants to do. OPs androids go father beyond this, but the question "Does it really want this or is it just acting/programmed to like it?" still remains. It's not a question we will get an answer to any time soon.
