Whoever makes a sex robot that also cooks & cleans, even badly, will be a Billionaire immediately.
If they're that sophisticated they'll also work as a security robot too. Triple win!
My prediction from like 25+ years ago, the order of appearance:
worker robots (we're almost there!)
security robots (that cannot be hacked)
sex robots (might arrive before the security ones do)
total robot workforce & utopia for the remaining humans.
Whichever nation perfects soldier robots, like the Terminator not like Johnny-5, will probably wipe almost everyone else out though.
I mean humanoid-looking robots, with arms & legs & stuff. That's not needed for most "worker" types but handy for the other types.
Remember ED-209 trying to navigate a staircase? More human-like than that. They need to go where humans can go too, and quickly! More I-Robot like.
I'll be in like for the first "catgirl sexbot" for sure.

Hilariously enough, your prediction was a bit backwards.
We have security robots now: https://youtu.be/3z-Vjs1NhgU
And it looks like sex robots will be arriving sooner than later.
Worker robots seem to have a lot of fatal flaws with dependency.
But it will be even more hilarious if the sex robots beat the worker robots to mass market.
Lolz, that's a bad robot! 😀

Yeah those Dalek robots are pretty lame.
We've had worker robots for decades. They're just on production lines (and now warehouse floors), rarely humanoid, and out of public view.
You're right, I was thinking more along the lines of the humanoid worker robots rather than the stationary kind that work assembly lines.
