How much will those robots cost? How many will we be able to make within the next 30 years?

How will they be autonomous considering bipedal operation in random environments is MUCH, MUCH harder that full self driving for cars on public roads? And that's just moving around, we're talking about actual judgement to do a human job that requires reasoning and practical skills.

Jetson type robots are a pipe dream at this point. I don't expect to have a robot maid within my lifetime.

Let's be realistic and not plan society today around scifi fantasies, please.

We're probably lacking 80% of the basic science needed for autonomous robot maids.
