Ok, granted that we're not this far along, and that I haven't watched the documentary, but this leads us down a rather slippery slope.
How life like do these dolls have to be for it to be "ok" to develop an attachment to it?
Let's say I created a doll like the ones in the video. The only catch is that it can move, can change expression and has a digitalized personality. Let's say that this doll is now life like in every possible way (including things i didn't mention) except for the actual possession of well... life. How is it different from developing an attachment to a human except for the knowledge that this is a bunch of circuits with a computer program telling it what to do?
