At the push of a button the simple robots will open a can and pour the chilled contents into a glass for a thirsty owner. Well, on one hand, I already have my wife trained to do that, but on the other hand, the robot won't nag me to paint the living room.

LOL! You took the words right off my keyboard! I can get my own beer, no problemo.
I actually had a super smart geeky friend tell me years ago that laundry would probably be one of the last tasks robots could accomplish, there is too much judgment on the fly involved, esp. with the folding, etc. Which is basically the reason I don't let hubby do the laundry.

There must be some ingenious form of camouflage at work in that picture, for some reason I can't see any beer.
