Elon Musk says his next mission is to build a robot for your home

The robot revolution might not begin with a rogue defense system declaring war on humanity, as Terminator predicted. Instead, it might take place when a bunch of robots finally decide that they're tired of picking up our stinky socks. OpenAI, an open source artificial-intelligence non-profit with 1 billion in funding from Elon Musk and Amazon among others, has announced details of its biggest project to date. The group intends to lay the groundwork for the creation of a robot that will "perform basic housework" in households around the world. In other words, the group intends to create software that will enable the proliferation of robot housemaids. DON'T MISS: Next year's iPhone may feature a futuristic design that makes Jony Ive's dream a reality "We're working to enable a physical robot (off-the-shelf; not manufactured by OpenAI) to perform basic housework," Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Ilya Sutskever, and Greg Brockton wrote in a post on the OpenAI blog.
