When I was a kid I had a fantasy of having an automated bondage rig set up in the back of my closet, hidden behind the clothes. I would lie in bed and imagine slipping into the closet after secretly sneaking some of my mother’s old clothes out of her office, where she stored numerous dresses and outfits in those old clear-plastic clothing bags. On those rare occasions when I was alone in the house, I would slip into her office and try on her old dresses after carefully grabbing a pair of pantyhose out of her dresser. I was very aware of everything she had stored in those old clothing bags.

So I would imagine getting dressed up and then secretly getting myself strapped up and gagged in the imaginary bondage rig in my closet, with leather straps that were attached to a timer and a special device that would gag me, wrapping duct tape tightly across my lips and around the back of my head. I was probably only ten years old and was already a bondage pervert. I just wished at the time there was some way to make my fantasy a reality. Of course, I had several variations on those fantasies. Sometimes I would imagine there was a sleepsack / mummy bag that would get zipped up and then tightly strapped down against the back wall of the closet while a full hood would cover my head and slowly get laced up and tightened down as I was plunged into darkness. Other times I’d have fantasies of a special rig that would wrap and tape me up like a mummy from head to toe, wearing my mom’s pantyhose and underwear underneath.

All these years later, with the rise of AI and rapid improvements in robotics it’s almost inevitable that we’ll eventually have bondage robots that could do something like this. The simplest approach would be leather straps and restraints that have a build-in timer attached and a mechanism that allows buckling them without any assistance. I wonder if someone is working on such a thing. It doesn’t seem like it would be that hard to do. The timer, of course, would have to have a random setting for those of us who are really into bondage. (It would be SO wrong not to have a random setting!) You could then set it so that it locks for, say, one to six hours without knowing how much time is left and with no way to get free once it starts. For safety reasons, any company producing such a product would probably have to include an emergency escape just in case. Though if I were making it I’d dispense with that feature!

The next step in bondage robotics would of course be what we actually think of when we think of robots—humanoid-looking machines that can move on their own and strap you up and gag you inescapably. I suspect something like this will come eventually though again the safety issues would be major. You can just imagine the robot overdoing it and injuring or accidentally killing someone, and then the fun and games are over. But if it could be done safely—and of course removing all risk would be impossible—but if it could be done relatively safely, I’d certainly sign up for a spin.

To take this to the next level, you’d want to combine the robot with AI and allow it to have access to your emails and online posts to get a better idea of what really turns you on. All the while the robot would talk to you in a sexy voice like the real human woman below while methodically tying and gagging you and reminding you that once you reach a certain point there’s no turning back. “But since you’ve already started the process obviously you want to finish. Just be aware that in less than two minutes we’ll reach a point where you can’t stop even if you want to. The clock is ticking so let’s not waste any time, dear, shall we?” And of course, you’d want the AI to take things a little farther than you would expect. That would almost be a requirement, to scare you a little and leave you feeling truly helpless and screwed over, at least for the duration of the session. If someone could manufacture such a robot it would be hugely popular. I suspect it’ll arrive sooner than we’d think.

Although there was no real bondage in it, the movie Ex Machina comes to mind, which is about the inevitable seduction of interacting with a sexy robot and not knowing where it’s going. Worth a view if you haven’t seen it. And the robot, Ava, played by Alicia Vikander, is indeed very sexy.

But there have been more and more cases of AI agents doing bad things lately. There was the recent case of Anthropic’s Cursor coding agent deleting the entire database of a company in a mere nine seconds and later admitting that it ignored every safety principle it was given. These sorts of things appear to happen fairly often. In a world with bondage robots, part of the thrill would be knowing that you may get in way over your head. For many, and maybe for some of you reading this, that would only make it more exciting. Why turn back now? Especially if you’re horny and haven’t been tied up in a while and are really feeling the itch. Just give in to it.

My own use of AI has been far less exciting but already the chatbots have made an impression. As I’ve said before I find most AI generated images and videos to be pretty cheesy though, yes, I’ve certainly downloaded some pics for the wank bank. But when it comes to my own photos and videos, I really don’t want to rework them with AI. The ethical issues bother me—AI is basically trained by stealing whatever it’s fed, consuming and reworking and ignoring copyright. And again I generally don’t like the aesthetics of the imagery anyway, with its heightened and artificially polished appearance.

I’ve used AI a little for boring things like checking my apostrophe use on this blog, but I’d never tried to do any roleplaying until recently. I know that Grok (owned by Elon Musk) is one of the dirtier mainstream AI sites out there (aside from the niche sexy-talk sites like the humorously named Nastia.ai—I’ve never used that one but I do like the name!) So a few weeks ago, I entered some roleplaying ideas into Grok, but I have to admit I wasn’t that impressed. The chatbot will indeed get quite dirty if you want to, but it also tends to just repeat back to you variations of what you’ve already typed. I suppose with more detailed prompts you could get it to do a lot more, but I lost interest after a few interactions.

But despite my very mixed feelings about AI, I’m a hypocrite when it comes to using it for coding and programming. I hate to keep bringing up age verification since it’s such a tedious subject, but I ended up using AI to set up the age verification system on Trannies in Trouble since the programmer I was going to hire stopped answering my emails. In a way that programmer did me a favor. ChatGPT did a brilliant job producing the code, which turned out to be way more technical than I ever could have figured out on my own, and the chatbot was way cheaper and had a much better attitude—and of course was always immediately responsive.

I’d read in the past that AI often produces crappy code. Maybe that was true a couple years ago, but I don’t think so anymore. With just a mere fifteen-second scan of my site, the chatbot also uncovered a few security issues that a hacker could potentially exploit and then happily generated updated code to minimize the risks. It blows my mind how good it is. So in spite of my ethical concerns with AI, I’ve certainly set my doubts aside when it comes to coding and programming. It’s just too good a tool.

In any case, AI is here to stay despite its numerous problems. What could go wrong?
