WMDoll, one of China’s largest sex doll manufacturers, expects to see a 30% increase in sales this year, thanks to the integration of open-source generative artificial intelligence (AI) models that have significantly enhanced the user experience of its products.
Feedback from customers has been overwhelmingly positive since the company began incorporating large language models (LLMs) — the underlying technology behind generative AI services like ChatGPT — into its latest range of anthropomorphic sex toys, according to WMDoll’s founder and CEO, Liu Jiangxia. “The dolls have become more responsive and interactive, providing users with a far more immersive experience,” Liu said in a recent interview with South China Morning Post.
The newly tested AI doll is able to retain long-term memory. If the user's "performance" this time is better than last time, the doll will give praise. Conversely, if the user is in poor condition, the doll can also provide comfort - "It's okay, 2 minutes is also very impressive" - emotional value like this is the most mentioned direction in WMDoll's buyer community.
Headquartered in Zhongshan, a city in southern Guangdong province, WMDoll has integrated its cutting-edge MetaBox series with an AI module that connects to cloud computing services hosted across data centers in different markets. These LLMs process real-time data from each doll, improving their interaction and responsiveness based on user input.
WMDoll has adopted several open-source LLMs, including Meta Platforms’ Llama AI models, which are highly customizable and can be deployed across various regions. This flexibility allows the company to refine and enhance the dolls' capabilities, making them more versatile and capable of delivering a tailored, personalized experience for each user.
The next-generation sex dolls still maintain their robust metal skeleton and high-quality silicone or thermoplastic elastomer exteriors, but the integration of AI has allowed them to evolve into much more than just passive products. Unlike traditional sex dolls that offer only basic functionality, these new models feature expressive capabilities that simulate more lifelike interactions — making them not only more appealing, but also more emotionally engaging for users.
The AI function is a subscription system. WMDoll gives it away for free for one year, and then you need to pay monthly. It has 8 personalities and can make simple expressions such as blinking. It is promised that all data will be stored locally (the storage unit in the doll) and cannot be obtained online.
