Astro Boy and Mega Man come to real life? I'm not particularly familiar with Astro Boy, but when will we see the first real-life Wily come out of this?
2025: The iPhone Moment For Humanoid Robots
The race is on to capture the multi-trillion market for humanoid robots. General-purpose robots can be instantly repurposed for any task by AI. Personal robots, for instance, will cook your meals, clean your house, do your laundry, tutor your kids, drive your car, cut your grass, take care of your elderly parents, repair your plumbing, etc. Whereas an iPhone has many apps accessed from a single device, robots will free you from a single screen to invade the physical world. Tesla will likely set the standard with its Optimus model starting at $20-30,000. ⁃ Patrick Wood, Editor.
“There’s an iPhone moment happening with humanoids,” said Brett Adcock, founder of Figure, a humanoid robotics company in California. “It’s going to happen right now,” added the serial entrepreneur, his robots already working on the production line in BMW’s Spartanburg factory. Another major corporate customer is trialing his robots for warehouse work. “To succeed at this, you have to do three things that have never been done before. And you have to get all three of them right within the next 5yrs or you’re going to fail for sure.”
