I meam, it's already been done in the industrial area. Factories are mostly packaged around machines. There is still a human component but that decreases per iteration. The real challenge is to make the automation as safe and non-obstrusive as possible. Since humans tend to err on the wrong side of the average intelligence scale. This calls for an approach that requires changing everything that has been done up until now. A self cleaning bed is no longer a frame with a mattress and some sheets. It is now a sophisticated machine that is able to move itself in an algorithmic manner to achieve a defined goal. Think about it
Beds are simple technology. Thisn would turn them into something as complex as an elevator.
If we move away from engineering for humans to machines, all of this will be more feasible. Problem is that it will take decades before that happens. Even if the singularity even happens because smart machines cannot overcome human stupidity and greed.
Saying that robots are about to overtake people in most jobs is like saying that humanity has evolved to a point where it doesn't mind losing money or changing it's ways.
