The reception section would benefit from a summation of positive reviews to bring this article more balance.

A second balance issue is that the book (at least in the first 2/3rds that I've read so far) is not exclusively about sex robots but also spends a great deal of time discussing robots as companions and whether they would be able to fall in love with and become love objects for humans (not restricted to the sexual aspects of love). I would recommend editing the introduction to reflect this broader orientation of the book.

Another key element of Levy's argument for why robots will be accepted as romantic and sexual partners is that if robots are able to convincingly act as if they experience love and pleasure, then we should not assume that the simulation is false or not equivalent to love and pleasure experienced by humans. I believe he derived this argument from the Turing Test for artificial intelligence, which argues that if a computer can convincingly act as if it is intelligent, it should be accepted as intelligent. You might then add this and include a link to the Wikipedia page on the Turing test and Alan Turing.

Ideally this article should have a brief summary of each chapter, or at least list the topics covered by each chapter of the book. But maybe that is beyond what you plan to do with it.

You might add a reference citing the book itself.

On a personal note, I want to thank you for bringing this book to my attention. I am listening to the audio book now and thoroughly enjoying it. AnthAJN (talk) 22:15, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
