Xpeng has an AI chip that they are putting in their robots (and in their cars). Their first robot walked off the production line last week. They want to be up and producing these things by the end of this year. These are intended for use in factories, not the home. But they seem pretty capable and I don't see a big technical gap with suitability for home usage. End of this decade seems reasonable as an expectation.
The real bottleneck is physical. Going from limited volume production to producing these by the millions and eventually billions is going to take some time and an enormous amount of resources and investment. I expect that might take a decade or two to ramp up. The first generations are probably going to be a bit of a toy for rich people as they will likely be a combination of expensive and not limited utility. But that could change rapidly.
