A robot can be found everywhere in the future. It may do all that human beings do.
As civilization(文明) progresses in the direction of technology, it has passed the point of supplying all the basic essentials(要素) of life-food, shelter, clothes, and warmth. Then we are faced with a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill(满足) needs which have been regarded as unnecessary and, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of work which a man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. In other words, we either raise out standard of living above that necessary for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours. I shall take it as automatic(自动的) that mankind has, by that time, chosen the latter alternative. Men will be working shorter and shorter hours in their paid employment. It follows that the housewife will also expect to be able to have more leisure(空闲) in her life without lowering her standard of living. It also follows that human domestic(家庭的) servants will have completely ceased(停止) to exist. Yet the great majority of the housewives will wish to be relieved(减轻) completely from the routine(日常的) operations of the home such as scrubbing the floors or the bath or the cooker, or washing clothes or washing up, or dusting or sweeping, or making beds.
