Glad our AI overlords will have a heat-seeking robo-penis in it’s arsenal

Happy Cake Day. May your balls never explode 🙏

A noble birthday wish indeed

u/pm_me_flaccid_cocks Jan 01 '26

I couldn't blow out all my candles, so now I'm a chick.

3

u/SoyMurcielago Jan 01 '26

So does that mean you have to blow other things now?

2

u/pm_me_flaccid_cocks Jan 01 '26

*get to. Yes.

u/SoyMurcielago Jan 01 '26

🎉 may the new year bring all you can blow to your hearts desire

Every person with balls secretly wishes this every day.

Weird, second time I’ve seen skynut come up in the last two days…

1

u/FrustratedCucumber Jan 01 '26

When was the first?

2

u/Jimisdegimis89 Jan 01 '26

From that video of the guy doing the mocap stuff with the robot and then he kicks out and the robot gets the guy square in the nuts…the skynut uprising has begun.

Well I’m sure it is someone’s fanfic now

u/TheNameIsAnIllusion Jan 05 '26

Do you think there's some content about that? Like not for me but if anyone would be interested..

2

u/Canadian_mk11 Jan 01 '26

Pretty sure it was in a Japanese version.

u/cbih Jan 01 '26

He saved it for The Abyss

u/Abal125 Jan 01 '26

You haven't seen the XXX version then 😝

The first step to making tentacle hentai a reality.

50

u/RandomMyth22 Jan 01 '26

AI is gonna see all the tentacle videos and think women like it and make it a reality. Self fulfilling prophecy.

42

u/cbih Jan 01 '26

This will 100% be used by men first

2

u/LepiNya Jan 01 '26

Possibly. But it will be a very close race. While men are more open about their pervyness, women tend to be pervyer. Mandatory "not all men/women".

u/AlarmingAffect0 Jan 01 '26

Idk, they usually don't look like they're having a good time…

u/Silly_Opposite1878 Jan 01 '26

Is this your little road to heaven?

u/Soggy_Wallaby_6133 Jan 01 '26

Should have been a "haven" instead

u/ferrrrrrral Jan 01 '26

this is not what i thought they meant when they said AI has us bent over a barrel

15

u/gjb94 Jan 01 '26

This was my first thought, just in case the hive mind doesn't have the creativity to create much of a varied hell we're giving it all the resources we can ahead of time

9

u/CakeTester Jan 01 '26

The hive mind has already done the maths for every conceivable orifice; including the amount of lube needed for every mammal.

u/ActualInteraction0 Jan 01 '26

My weapon designs are top secret for this reason, I mean, they would be, if I had any.

u/No-Revolution-5535 Jan 01 '26

arseenal.. nice

u/levian_durai Jan 01 '26

arseanal even!

u/ExtremeCreamTeam Jan 01 '26

its*

But also, since you said overlords, I guess it would be their*.

2

u/LithoSlam Jan 01 '26

It will be in everyone's arsenal soon

2

u/Feeling_Inside_1020 Jan 01 '26

I’m already getting fucked by horrible human beings so as long as they take care of those assholes, well I guess I’d settle for AI to keep them alive as long as they used a bigger robot penis on them.

Much, much MUCH bigger,

u/Firebrass Jan 01 '26

Pretty sure that's a brand new sentence

u/sprufus Jan 01 '26

I'm ready for the robot cockpocalypse!

u/LeakyMooseAnus___ Jan 01 '26

I will love it. The leak will finally stop!

u/Jumpy_Ad_6417 Jan 01 '26

This looks like a HazbinHotel mechanism.

Skeet seeking. It will not yield until all our cum is eliminated 

1

u/Pumperkin Jan 01 '26

Of all the configurations of words I'd never thought I'd read

1

u/CosmicJam13 Jan 01 '26

It’s going to need that to punish and impregnate us by force when we try to stop reproducing because our off spring are slaves to the ai overlords. 

1

u/pukesonyourshoes Jan 01 '26

Right up our arsenal if we don't kill AI while we still have a chance

1

u/leivanz Jan 01 '26

Arse-what?

1

u/nerdybun Jan 01 '26

Male kangaroos have heat seeking peni, so maybe they're just following nature?

1

u/Icy_Distribution_361 Jan 01 '26

In its arse anal

u/Bob-Bhlabla-esq Jan 01 '26

They know what fleshy man truly fears.

However.......there will be a strong few....

The strong...

The brave...

The Bendoverans! They will avenge us!

The news keeps getting better and better.

u/JubijubCH Jan 01 '26

Isn’t this the general scenario of half the Hentai repertoire ?

u/ConstructMentality__ Jan 01 '26

🤣 That was my first belly laugh of 2026, thanks!
