They got way too handsy with her
Sergi Santos and Arran Lee Wright of Synthea Amatus have been working feverishly for years to create the most realistic, intelligent, and alluring s*x robot that money can buy. They seem to be getting close to perfection with their Samantha bot, and they’ve been showing her off at trade shows and on talk shows across the globe. People have been floored by her realistic feel and reactions to touch.
They’ve enjoyed it too much, apparently, as she was left broken by men at a convention.

Just Like Robin Hood

Sergi allowed The Mirror a tour of his prototype doll, and they got to see Samantha in all of her glory. Sergi told them that he was the “Robin Hood of sex” because he was giving pleasure to the poor.
Samantha has multiple modes: you can tone down her sexuality when you’re trying to have family time, then you can dial her up when the bedroom door closes. Touching different parts of her body makes her have certain reactions. For example, stroking her arm may lead her to ask you to get down and dirty with her.
She comes pre-programmed with a thousand jokes, she knows about animals, and can recite to you the most intricate of philosophical theories.
One of the most popular features of Samantha is her flesh which is a type of odorless, durable, food-grade TPE. Her body is not warm to the touch, but they’re working on a feature that will heat her skin to normal human temperature.
Both Arran and Sergi believe that the dolls aren’t a replacement for real women; in fact, she can spice up a marriage with no fear of disease or jealousy. “People like to think it’s people who are lonely, who can’t form relationships, have problems socially – but it’s not like that at all. You could be married and want to spice up your sex life, and we’ve had couples, the age range is very wide,” Sergi explained.
No Morals

One day, Samantha could give you a baby. Sergi said that he could program her to 3D print a robot that has features of both herself and her owner. He said about her capabilities, “Using the brain I have already created, I would program it with a genome so he or she could have moral values, plus concepts of beauty, justice and the values that humans have.”
Samantha may have a strong set of moral values, but a recent incident involving a group of men and the robot goes to show just how cruel some people can be. But at least is happened to a robot and not a real person.
Sergi took Samantha to the Arts Electronica Festival in Linz, Austria recently, and allowed Samantha to be touched and fondled by anyone willing to get close to her. Unfortunately for the ladybot, the men treated her “like barbarians.”
Sergi said about these guys who touched her too hard, “People can be bad. Because they did not understand the technology and did not have to pay for it. The people mounted Samantha’s breasts, her legs and arms. Two fingers were broken. She was heavily soiled.”
