NO WAY! Life imitates art: an episode of The Big Bang Theory featured a "kissing machine" invented by Howard (hilarious - The Big Bang Theory - Howard's kissing machine). Howard's machine is better, as it has the tongue upgrade. ;)
Also ... the device below is named "Kissinger"? Really? That's about the worst marketing name for a kissing robot I can imagine. If I were virtually kissing, I wouldn't want to be remined of a 90-year-old Republican with a heavy accent.

"An artificial intelligence researcher in Singapore has developed a robot with a virtual mouth that can emulate and transmit a kiss - bringing an extra touch of intimacy to a long-distance relationship or even a video game. The 'Kissinger' 'is the size and shape of a softball and has a pair of touch-sensitive lips that detect and copy how each partner delivers their kiss."
