Scooba

You may have heard of Roomba, the vacuuming robot by iRobot, but have you heard of Scooba yet? It "preps, washes, scrubs and dries" your floors, even wood. Personally I'd like a robot that can tidy up the house and scrub the toilets. I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

As robots and AI become more capable we'll probably see companies more interested in them. It's alot cheaper to have robots retrieve shopping carts and scrub toilets than to hire people. This will make it more difficult for kids to find a summer job though. And eventually it may put alot of the american work force out employment. It'll be interesting to see how it pans out.
