Legs are a small subset of the problem. “Where did I see that last?” involves mapping out and classifying the environment. There’s some really impressive demos of manipulating objects on a table etc, but random clutter throughout a house is still a problem.

One interesting thing there is that we may treat a robot differently than a dog.

A dog will walk around the house, look at everything, smell everything, and touch many things. It makes things like finding slippers much easier.

I'm not sure we'd enjoy a robot doing the same, randomly wandering around the house and poking at stuff for some unspecified and uncommanded purpose.
