‘I look at this as a temporary way to give someone a means of feeling something that resembles a relationship without the risk.’ 

He added: ‘Imagine someone who has been through several traumatic relationships , where their partner basically stabbed them in the back…

‘This gives them an alternative!’ 

Those watching at home were in total shock at what they were watching and all pointed out the same thing about Aria – that some users of the robot may have rather less savoury intentions

One said on X, formerly known as Twitter: ‘Yeah. A robot for lonely men to ‘talk’ to..’ 

Another chimed in: ‘I don’t believe it’s for anything other than pervs lol!’

A third added: ‘This doll will be abused by dirty old men.’

Many rushed to X, formerly known as Twitter, to all say the same thing about the new robot that is available to buy in the US

A fourth simply added: ‘Creepy.’ 

A fifth tweeted: ‘Imagine waking up in the middle of the night to see that standing by the bed staring at you.’ 

Noel told viewers: ‘There are some that find the idea of having one of these machines as a spouse absolutely terrifying.’ 

He asked Aria: ‘Should we be afraid of you?’

Aria told him: ‘Not at all. 

‘I’m here to enhance human experiences and provide companionship. Not install fear.’  

Elsewhere in the segment, Noel asked Aria: ‘How do you know to respond to the things I’m saying to you?’ 

Aria told the reporter: ‘I used advanced conversational AI to understand and respond to what you’re saying… 

‘All while keeping the conversation engaging and fun.’
