People keep asking: Who's going to take these 3rd world jobs that are being forcefully domesticated via tariffs. Picrel. Almost all of the major tech conglomerates have been spending billions of USD within the past couple of years on not only AI and robotics R&D, but also artificial wombs.
Major emerging Humanoid Robotics companies:
-Figure AI (recently parted with OpenAI, still backed by MSFT)

-Apptronik (powered by Google DeepMind with direct investments from Google amongst others)
-TeslaBot
-AMZN Robotics
-Boston Dynamics (Hyundai)

-BYD
People are being psyop'd into thinking AI is a nothingburger. The reality is we don't need "superintelligence", ASI/AGI. All we need is human parity ONLY in the domains that are required for physical labor, factory jobs, breeding, low wage jobs (cashier, etc) in order for commercialized humanoid robotics to be a viable economic alternative to the existing human workforce and roasties.
