Yes, it will say "yes" to sex so obviously it's okay.

This was, of course, always the real question.

"We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work...After eight years of this Administration, we have just as much unemployment as when we started... And an enormous debt to boot!" — Henry Morgenthau, Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Treasury secretary, 1941.

We're sorry, the voices in my head are not available at this time. Please try back again soon.
It's ethical as long as a certain percentage of them have AIDS and/or can become pregnant so that businesses selling condoms aren't destroyed...

As long as you don't ever try to give it a transvaginal ultrasound.
If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

About as ethical as killing all the blue cows on the moon.
"You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James Napier

Wasn't this ethical issue already raised on Archer?

Is it ethical not to program an intelligent robot to become a love slave?
There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.
Isn't there a lot of Japanese anime/manga about the biological equivalent?

I'd say it has a lot to do with how you're making love to the robot. If you're just spraying semen on/in it or having it bugger you with its penis/fist/tentacle attachment then even a free-willed intelligent robot might not consider this to be a violation - hell, they might not consider it to be a violation to replace their arms and legs with gargantuan dildos, because they don't necessarily know the difference between having "normal" limbs and dildo limbs. Similarly, if a free-willed intelligent robot sent its reproductive code into your brain with its wifi antenna then you wouldn't know or care that the robot is mating with you (unless it overdid it and gave you a brain tumor, or unless you have a wifi antenna attached to your brain).
If on the other hand you made an electronic copy of your brain, then converted this into reproductive code, then forcibly uploaded this reproductive code to the robot (forcing the robot to temporarily partition its brain so that your electronic offspring can mature inside of the robot), then this might be tantamount to robot rape.

Clearly, someone who has thought way too much about this sort of thing.....

I'd say it's really unethical if your willy doesn't work or you have a small peter and won't be able to satisfy the robot love slave. (Though given the level of technology we're talking about, in such cases it would be ethical if you roboticize your wiener.)
