Time between the development of the wheel to the train is a huge gap. Since then we've developed at an extremely fast rate based on our understanding and ability to process information, helped by the development of computers.
There is a hindrance of all things though in development of new technologies. Money. Things never develop without money. But that said flying cars will be the next development from the list, it involves advance technology without the AI implecations of a robot. We'd have to develop cheap and efficient fuel before then though.

One form of slavery will not disappear with the development of compititant robots. Such developments are unlikely to quell man's need for sex, sadly.
Hmm, pie.
