It's a good example of how play in the future will also go the way of jobs.

Why garden when your neighbors will have amazing gardens cheaply designed and looked after by robots.

And it'll be smart, it'll know exactly how many weeds to leave so it doesn't look to perfect, exactly when to plant and pollinate, order things online when needed.

The journey is as much fun as the end product. Usually moreso in these cases.

This is the problem, robots are killing the journey.

To take your point literally

Like jobs, at first it's great, highways, planes, easy to access information open up the world to everyone.

But it'll get to the stage where it's too easy. Adventures are getting harder to have. You no longer find that amazing restaurants, you yelp them and book months in advance.

In the future when you're chatting to someone about visiting county X and you realise they have only been there virtually it'll perhaps devalue your own journey, then perhaps you'll get what I mean.

You know people still walk right?

People tend to get play and competition mixed up, with disastrous consequences. Do what you enjoy doing, don't worry if it's better than anyone else.

Besides gardening, robots could clean up garbage. An army of small bots could clean up a forest in no time (or go underwater to clean up the shores).
