people very soon as going to look back at all of us and just think "they didn't even have robots yet! how did they even eat?" Well, future readers, it isn't easy! We either go to the store and bring back groceries ourselves or pay a helper to do it. No robot in the loop there. Then when it comes time to cook something we either have to cut it up and otherwise prepare it and then cook it ourselves, or another human can do it, or we can buy fully prepared foods that don't require cooking. And then when we're done we have to put our own dishes away into a dishwasher. We can't just say a few words and have a robot do it for us!
Eat? You must be living under a rock. We've been evaporating our sustenance and storing it in the cloud for years.
Perhaps nanobots will be able to carry the chemical makeup of a cheeseburger and rebuild a bite directly in our mouths, no cooking necessary!
Remember though, there is no food cloud really, just other people's fridges.

Or order it from Amazon, in which case there was likely a robot in the pipeline.
Robots are very widely deployed, but almost entirely invisibly to the customer yet.
Roomba is the main exception.
As if people of the future will be able to read. Maybe some future AI anthropologists will read it though.
