WTF Humans fall in love with robots. At a 2016 conference focused on love and sexuality with robots, some experts felt that marriage between humans and robots could be legalized starting in 2050. "If a robot looks like it loves you, and you feel like it loves you, then you will basically feel like it's almost human love," said Adrian Cheok, professor of computer science at City University London and director of the Mixed Reality Lab in Singapore, among others. Marriage between robots and humans could become possible: "This may seem outrageous because it's only 35 years away. But 35 years ago, people thought homosexual marriage was outrageous," Cheok said. The professor further explained, "In the '70s, some states didn't allow white and black people to marry each other. Society is evolving and changing very quickly."
