You want a separate robotic appliance for every thing you want done? That sounds... hectic.

I'm also not sure it's important that laundry and dishes get done at the exact same time - if it is, you should probably do 1 of those tasks yourself - especially since a robot would be able to stuff at night, etc, giving it more time to complete tasks

Also, GP mentions stairs, and adding wheel support to that. So not only do you want a half dozen robits rolling around your home, you'll also need to remodel your home to support it.

Or, of course, we could develop bipedal robots, which seems to have little downside as compared to wheeled robots.

I just want the tasks done without thinking about them. How it happens doesn't matter to me, just get it done. 1 robot, 1 million - I don't care, just so long as I can afford them and they stay out of my way.

While I don't care if everything gets done at once, I care that things are done right and not otherwise inconvenient for me. Maybe the best way to have robots that work slow and then apply a lot of then.

The important thing to note here is robots for many of the things I want do not exist. When they come we will see. Maybe is a a specialized robot, maybe it is more general purpose. That is irrelevant.
