Robotics today.
In this trade war of robots and especially humanoid robots there is Cyber One from the Chinese company Xiaomi, its development has cost 2.7 billion dollars and the only thing it has shown is that it can walk in an unnecessarily dramatic promotional, carry a flower and hand it to the CEO of Xiaomi in a presentation and since it has tongs instead of hands, I don't think it will stand out many.
Also this UBtech, a company that already has several commercial robots on the market, is developing the Walker S2 robot, which is supposed to be able to be used on production lines, yes, its arms rotate in ways that are humanly impossible, but I honestly don't think any industry will retain a human employee who walks and moves that slowly.
Then we have Boston Dynamics, the robotics company that has belonged to Hyundai for several years and currently sells the Spot quadruped robot and the Stretch industrial robotic arm.
On top of that, they spend a lot of time making life difficult for him to test his capabilities in changing and hostile environments. We better not make him aware because he's going to figure out what to do with that robot leg.
Agility Robotics' Digit robot has cost $178 million to develop and has participated in pilot programs in industries carrying boxes, that's all. Loading boxes is his passion. Is it better than a human carrying boxes? I don't believe it.
The robot above can not only carry boxes, it can also keep your house tidy and bring you packages in slow motion, it is called Figure 03, the humanoid robot from the company Figure AI, which had been collaborating with Open AI so that its robot could learn through large language models, like the ones that make Chat GPT work, but they recently decided to end the collaboration and are now developing their own model called Helix.
