I have not
I'm actually thinking it might have the opposite effect to be honest.
It may condition men to see women as objects and start treating them like they would their robots. If anything, just out of habit.

Eventually, these things could be so human-like it would be hard (no pun intended) to tell them apart from the real thing. Here's my immediate thoughts pro and con:
PRO:
Guys would get to have sex whenever they wanted. They would presumably be happier and less likely to channel their frustration into violence.
Guys might more value real women for their non-sexual qualities because they wouldn't need them for that. They might be much less likely to deceive them just to get them in bed because it wouldn't be worth the effort.
Sexual harassment and assaults would be decreased dramatically.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
