I'm not sure if you wrote the above in jest / as a joke, but actually I'm quasi-hopeful that by the time I'm in my 80's (nearly 30 years from now) "Assistant Personal Robots" will actually be a reality.

Is this a fantastical thinking?? Perhaps...but maybe not. We already have self-driving cars, robots are commonly found in factories, etc.. Technological advances don't follow a linear path, but grow by jumps and leaps. 30 years is a long time, it's doubtful that any of us imagined in 1996 the technology we take for granted now.
