I've learned that I spend significantly less time folding laundry than many of the people commenting about modern ai powered robotics. It's not meant literally is it? For instance keeping floors and counter-tops clean seems a much bigger time sink for me.

It's just a general "thing I don't want to do" not the thing that takes the most time. Could be taking out the garbage. It's just an example menial task.

My partner spends at least 10x time on this task than I do. I think the task has a varied workload?

  • There's definitely a wide variance in laundry. Laundry is something that I can do to kill time while boiling pasta on the stove, for my partner it is an entire afternoon task.

  • I think my grandmother is the only person I can think of in my entire family that legit folds cloths properly. Dying art? :D
