I fully agree, building something like this is somewhere in my back log.

I think the key point why this "reverse cyborg" idea is not as dystopian as, say, being a worker drone in a large warehouse where the AI does not let you go to the toilet is that the AI is under your own control, so you decide on the high level goal "sort the stuff away", the AI does the intermediate planning and you do the execution.

We already have systems like that, every time you use you tell your navi where you want to go, it plans the route and gives you primitive commands like "on the next intersection, turn right", so why not have those for cooking, doing the laundry, etc.?

Heck, even a paper calendar is already kinda this, as in separating the planning phase from the execution phase.

I'm quite slowly working on something like this, but for time.

For "stuff" I think a bigger draw is having it so it can let me know "hey you already have 3 of those spices at locations x, y, and z, so don't get another" or "hey you won't be able to fit that in your freezer"
