"Coming soon" is what people have said for years about this stuff. I'm pretty sure I've heard people say that self-driving cars are coming soon soon since I was a kid, and yet I'm living in the largest city in the US and every time I call an Uber, there's a human driving it. If there's going to be a time when I can book a cleaner for my house and a robot is going to come instead of a person, that's probably decades away.
