Currently, personalized design in new energy vehicles mainly focuses on exterior aesthetics, with limited research on dashboard interface design.

Some argue that the novelty and curiosity generated by technology can be attractive for those who seek something new and exciting in their sexual lives. Additionally, the anonymity and freedom associated with interacting with robots or artificial intelligence (AI) may be appealing for some individuals who wish to avoid the uncertainty and risk inherent in human sexual relationships.
