The world's first cyber brothel opened in Berlin (6 photos)

Instead of living sex workers, they use dolls that come to life using VR technology.





The first cyber brothel (Cybrothel) opened its doors in the German capital quite recently. The Germans did not invent anything extraordinary; the idea of ​​creating such an institution hung in the air. But, according to futurologists, with the development of technology and neural networks, there will be more such brothels (turnover of $3.3 billion by 2033), and live sex workers will have to move.

As a sexual partner, Cybrothel offers the client to choose the sex doll he likes. He is then given a non-restrictive wireless VR headset and taken to a room with a bed. The same doll is already waiting for him there, but already animated through an AI deepfake. Since neural networks are not yet so developed, the voice acting of the avatar doll is done by a girl operator who is behind the walls of the room and does not see what is happening, but controls the movements and facial expressions of the doll in virtual reality.

"When customers put on a VR headset, they will see the doll move and talk to them. It's like a sexy version of Siri [the voice assistant]," said co-owner Matias Smetana.

According to the founders of the cyber-brothel, the prices in their establishment are quite affordable. A session costs from 85€ (~ ₽8.5 thousand) to 129 € (~ ₽12.7 thousand). However, prices depend on the number of sex dolls, the duration of the session and other wishes of the client that go beyond the price list.



Cyberpunk is coming

The owners of the brothel said that they enter into a non-disclosure agreement with clients. There are no cameras in the comfort rooms, but the client's voice is recorded to make the process more realistic. Clients are also prohibited from being violent with sex dolls.



Now the creators of Cybrothel are waiting for the development of neural networks to an acceptable level so that the dolls can work autonomously, without female operators.
