Bizarre job advert is looking for people to masturbate for £1500 a month

An AI company is looking to hire 10 people for the rather odd sounding job of 'masturbation consultant' to help them test a feature which will guide people through a session of self-pleasure.

It's probably not the sort of thing you'd want to stick on your CV, nor have to describe in a job interview when your prospective employer asks what you used to do for a living, but $2,000 a month to masturbate is a fairly lucrative wage.

The company Joi AI wants to test their 'Daily Guided Masturbation' feature and to do that they're looking for 10 people whose hands are no stranger to their genitals.

According to Decrypt, the job will last you four weeks and over 18s in the UK and US are welcome to apply.

As for what they'll be doing, besides the obvious sessions of choking the chicken and flicking the bean, the 10 new hires will be documenting how using this new feature affects their stress, sleep quality, mood and confidence.

They say they want people who are 'articulate, observant, and impossible to blush', as well as those who are able to articulate what they're feeling 'better than a sommelier describes a wine'.

Joi AI's Daily Guided Masturbation feature is supposed to use a mood-matched AI voice to guide people through the most technologically advanced w**k they've ever had.

Apparently this is the future, cranking one out while a robot talks you through it, which makes one wonder if perhaps we've gone down the wrong track in pursuit of technological advancement.

These 10 testers for the new feature will run through guided masturbation sessions and complete questionnaires about their experience for the Joi AI team to peruse.

Some of the questions people will have to answer include working out whether the AI generated voice matched the mood and whether lags put them off their masturbation.

Joi AI is a platform which claims you can 'f**k dating' and get into an 'ai-lationship' with a few lines of code instead, meaning you can create AI characters who will talk to you and you get to decide their personality and what sort of relationship they have with you.

Perhaps they took inspiration from the name of the character Joi in Blade Runner 2049, where Ana de Armas plays an AI hologram girlfriend of the AI law enforcement officer K (Ryan Gosling).

Throughout the movie he wonders if she actually likes him, or whether it's just because she's programmed to like him.

After she gets destroyed he encounters a giant advertising hologram of Joi where it tells him she's: "Everything you want to see. Everything you want to hear."

He's rather upset by all of this as he realises what they had and who he is was never as special as he thought it had been.
