In a warehouse in Shanghai, approximately one hundred humanoid robots are being manufactured to perform everyday tasks with the help of Artificial Intelligence.
On the outskirts of Shanghai, around one hundred humanoid robots are learning to make sandwiches, clean counters and arrange flowers for 17 hours a day. Their repetitive movements are part of a data-driven effort to advance Artificial Intelligence-powered automation.
The Chinese robotics firm 'Agibot' is developing what they've called Genie-1 robots, to be trained like a human and perform real-world tasks autonomously.
Company President Yao Maoqing believes the devices could eventually be in our homes.
So far, more than a thousand humanoid robots have been produced and the company has delivered 700 of them to customers, mainly in China. Some of the models have gone to auto showrooms to interact with visitors.
The company potentially sees these robots performing complex tasks and maybe assembling themselves in Agibot's factories.
