You do realize it won't be just for people who are lazy. It's also can be used and probably will be used for people with disabilities. Think of those with service dogs, the robots will likely take care of this task as the dogs expire in 15 years or so whereas a human and robot do not.

The intriguing thing about this story is the migrating intelligence from device to device. The hardware itself isn't all that impressive. It's the software that has my attention.
