Shitty article that doesn't expand on any specifics. Most household tasks are already automated, at this point the only ones left are folding laundry and placing microwave dinners into the microwave. This can probably be automated, but most people can't afford another 4x4' onto their laundry room for the laundry-sorting robot arm or 2x2' above/near a compliant microwave for the kitchen claw.

Though that does bring up an important idea: as this happens, the market will split between compliant/automation-usable devices and old-fashioned human devices. We need some larger entity like the government to step in and regulate how that would work so consumers aren't left with discontinued products that end up trashed.
