In a brothel (a market that AI-powered sex dolls might partly disrupt), customers don't get their money back if they regret their "purchase" after releasing their pent-up energy.

Would it disrupt the brothel? I'm inexperienced in the field, but I'm pretty sure in a proper establishment I'd rather go with a real human rather than an AI-powered sex doll, no matter the cost.

But what do I know, human sexuality is very diverse.

in a brothel they actually mate with human beings -- completing the actual act, even if mechanical and compensated.

chatbots will never do that. it's like eating an image of bread vs. eating stale bread -- yeah it's not the good, ideal fresh bread, but it's actual bread.
