Will AI and robotics take doing laundry away from me?
No? Just my job?
Thanks, I guess.
But you'll have more time to do the laundry!
Turn around, there's more laundr-EEEEE-ee-EE-eee-EE-ee-EEEE!
”In your haste, you forgot dryer sheeeee-ee-ee-eee-ee-ee-eeeets…”
It's these terrible single washer/dryer combos that are the cause of this pain. I can only assume their popularity is because they are small and cheap.
It may be the one thing America gets right - overwhelming people have larger washer / dryers with dedicated washing and drying sections. Takes up more space and I'm assuming requires hookups that aren't common elsewhere, but man, they are SO much faster and far more effective. You can be done with all your laundry in a couple hours tops - and I'm talking like 1-2 weeks of laundry all at one time.
Meanwhile we have one of these, and I feel like we're doing small loads of wash the entire week. And don't even bother with the dryer setting on it - for 90% of items, you're just spending 6 hours raising your electricity bill.

I though the US is the home of washer/dryer combos? Never seen them in Europe.
I had one back in the day which was the same load size as normal washing machine and had two modes of drying. First is like you say. The other, if you hook up an exhaust duct, dried clothes in the same time as a regular dryer.
I have never in my live seen a washer/dryer combo, but that does seem pretty stupid. Like just hang your cloth to dry, it's not that hard
But why bother? I have a machine like that. I can put my clothes into it for a short cycle while I'm running, and after one hour I can wear clean and dry clothes again. It works great. It saves a lot of time and effort.
So true! Robots and AI, what really would impress is a machine that wash, dry and folds clothes.
But why the doggie so long
You're a dog snake who has a washing machine in the clouds?
That's not a washing machine, that's a swamp of sadness.
