AN inventor and his wife are saving marriages with the ‘love bot’!

A Robot To Save Marriages

AN inventor building the next generation of sex robots with his wife reckons the cyborg lovers could help save marriages – and has improved his own.

Robotics expert Dr Sergi Santos and his partner of 16 years, Maritsa Kissamitaki, are the brains behind ‘Samantha’, an artificial intelligence-driven love doll that he says is capable of enjoying sex.

Sergi, from Rubi, Catalonia in Spain, credits Samantha – who has three different sexual personas, ranging from shy to raging nymphomaniac – with enhancing his sexual endurance. He also says the love bot improves his marriage by offering a sexual outlet when his wife isn’t in the mood. Sergi, aged 39, says, “A man wants to feel in general that the woman is desperate to have sex with him. And if a man feels like the woman will not enjoy it fully, [he] won’t like it. And this is the cause of many sexual problems.”
