Imagine the biggest market for a physical product you can. Are you thinking of mobile phones? Cars? Property?
They are all chunky markets but in the coming decades a new product will be rolled out that will dwarf those giants, says Geordie Rose, the chief executive of Sanctuary AI.
The Vancouver-based firm is developing a humanoid robot called Phoenix which, when complete, will understand what we want, understand the way the world works and have the skills to carry out our commands.
"The long term total addressable market is the biggest one that's ever existed in the history of business and technology - which is the labour market. It's all of the things we want done," he says.
Before we get too ahead of ourselves, he qualifies that statement: "There is a long way to go from where we are today."

AI would be good for us slobs to give us a prompting to make sure we cleaned up.
But will you be able to charge it between 4:00 and 8:00 pm or will that cause blackouts?

“How Long Until a Robot Is Doing Your Chores?”
Not soon enough! I need a ‘Rosie’ or I need another WIFE around here!
You could always become Muslim! LOL
I don’t want a robot to do my chores. I gripe but I like my chores.
Well, my son turns 13 so he's doing good. 10 year old still needs some training!
Not soon enough.
It better be able to go all day. Between 4:00 and 8:00 I want it to make me dinner and clean up the mess
Never.
Even the Roomba, despite more than two decades of development, can't handle dog feces.
You mean I won’t have to hire Mexicans anymore?
How long until we are doing the robots’ chores?
Yeah, and how long until it breaks down? Just like that new washing machine bought in the middle of C didn’t work on day one and Home Depot and Whirlpool (Made in the USA) wouldn’t fix it.
What if it’s the dog that’s blaming the Roomba?
My robot lawn mower is 2 years old and going strong. I also have robot vacuum for tiled areas of house for over a year. Love both. Now I have more time to go to gym.
👍👍👍👍👍 I loved the Jetsons
So there won’t be a reason for men to get married anymore? (kidding...)
