All those things could be more readily solved by just legalizing and de-stigmatizing sex work. AI sex bots actively harm that industry by taking work away from humans, just like how a hypothetical AI acting bot would harm the acting industry.
The work could be done cheaper by robots, presumably. And sure, I’m all for legalized sex work. But if a machine can do it better, faster, and cheaper - why not? Fleshlights exist - are you opposed to those because they take work from sex workers? Ludditism always fails - if human sex workers are still around after we have fully functioning sex bots, it is because they can provide something the bots can’t. And I think this will be the case - at the end of the day, we know on a deep level that there is a difference between fucking a bot and fucking a real human.

Get yer pitchforks! They’re a’coming for our blowjerbs!

Just because we can automate something, doesn’t mean we should. At least not until we live in a moneyless society.
But not necessarily because they were wrong.
I mean your right, but if I were to guess which is more likely, sex bots takes the win.
Sure, I was just pushing back on the “wouldn’t AI sex bots be good actually” take
you’re right, but consider: unless we’re going even farther down the subscription shithole, a sexbot would be a one time purchase.
They are definitely going to make the personality updates and features all subscription based.
