opening doors, fetching items and turning the lights on or off

That's worthless.

teleoperation

I got rid of Microsoft, getting rid of Google and dozens of other surveillance aggregators. Why would I want this?

Worthless? You clearly don't have children.

They can open doors and leave lights on, but somehow not turn off / close.
