AI was supposed to do my laundry so that I could make art and code for fun but now the AI is coding and making art while I do laundry.
it's a funny meme but it's because software can iterate faster than hardware. Give it a few years for robot maids to come out that can do your laundry, then we'll see society upturn.
What social upturn do you expect because robots will still be coding and making art as well as folding laundry.

How will I buy a robot maid if I don’t have a job because a robot does it? These robot maids will be doing manual labour jobs before I can just buy one for myself. So who will be left to buy thing at all?

Profound and painful statement.
yep,sci-fi really got this one wrong lol.
Give the Chinese some time.

They are doing incredible things with world models, and have an economy that really could do incredible things with robots wired to effective world models.

It won't surprise me at all if in 10 years LLMs are less of a big deal than world models
