Is it Ethical to Program an Intelligent Robot So that it Will Want to Be Your Love Slave?
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?

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.....
“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”
