A worker assembles a pleasure doll at the WMDoll factory in 中山 (Zhōngshān), 广东省 (Guǎngdōng province), China. The factory counts more than 200 full-time staff workers, and claims to produce AI-powered handcrafted dolls, even if, for now, the AI’s soul is still very basic as they can whisper a few words and move eyes and arms, but cannot yet hold long conversations.
