Sex robots could enjoy same HUMAN RIGHTS as us under barmy new laws cooked up by politically correct MEPs
Bonkers bleeding heart liberals want everyone to call intelligent machines ‘electronic persons’
ROBOTS - including sex bots - could win rights currently enjoyed by their human creators under EU plans.
A European Parliament committee has voted to endorse a draft report proposing to grant legal status to ALL robots.
In the spirit of political correctness, the robots are to be called as “electronic persons” - so as not to offend them.
The draft report was approved by 17 votes to two this week with only two abstentions by the committee on legal affairs.
It states: “The most sophisticated autonomous robots could be established as having the status of electronic persons with specific rights."
The report was written by Luxembourg MEP Mady Delvaux who wants to fight for robots rights.
She says: “A growing number of areas of our daily lives are increasingly affected by robotics.
“In order to address this reality and to ensure that robots are and will remain in the service of humans, we urgently need to create a robust European legal framework”.

MEPs are also calling on designers to make all robots with kill switches that could shut down functions if they posed a risk to humans.
The rules would enable humans to use robots “without fear of physical or psychological harm,” a draft report stated.
While significant advances in technology will have a positive effect on the world as we know it, MEPs warned that they could outsmart humans within decades.
