Turned On: Science, Sex and Robots is a nonfiction study of intimacy, artificial intelligence, and human relationships with technology by computer scientist Kate Devlin. Rather than treating the sex robot chiefly as a sensational future product, Devlin uses it as a lens for examining enduring questions about desire, companionship, embodiment, gender, and social norms. The book combines cultural history, discussion of contemporary sex technology, and accessible analysis of human computer interaction. It moves from myths and mechanical automata to networked devices, conversational systems, and speculative humanoid companions. Devlin also separates public fantasy from technical reality: machines may convincingly imitate attention or emotion, but this is not equivalent to consciousness or reciprocal feeling. Her central purpose is not to predict a simple replacement of human relationships. It is to ask what intimate technologies reveal about existing needs and inequalities, and how their design could support more varied, humane, and ethically responsible forms of connection.
