I'm hungry, but also really tired and don't want to have to cook food. Where are the robot servants we were supposed to all have by now?

Maybe I can muster up enough energy to cut up a carrot.

Frozen meals you can nuke in the microwave?

I managed to chop some veg, and had some canned potato and frozen mushroom to use. Ended up with some steak, fried potato, carrot & broccoli, and an onion and mushroom sauce. It was pretty yummy. But now I have to load the dishwasher. Which I guess is a sort of robot servant, it would just be nice if it could load itself.

Would you, for an affordable price, use this bot. I would worry about revolution.

I prefer robots that don't look like people. I want them to do specific tasks for us better than people, not to be some sort of fake replacement for people.

No. I would worry that it was being all judgy judgy about my figure type.
