“Robots,drones(无人机)and AI will do around 90% of the housework by 2040,” scientists from King’s College said.
Mischa Dohler and Dr Ian Pearson wrote the report *Life More Automated Report* to predict what homes will look like in 20 years. In it,they said that housework like washing clothes and dishes would be much easier because of technology progress(进步). If technology kept making progress,they expected that people would spend less than two hours a day in doing housework.
But most British people still don’t believe their predictions. Just 2/5 of the people think that house robots will become a reality(现实)by 2040.
