Manufacturing robots are in most factories globally and rapidly increasing. At the Tesla Gigafactory in China, automation counts for 95% of manufacturing. Humanoid robots will be increasingly deployed due to advances in AI and reduction in component costs. The use of AI has made it possible to have humanoid robots learn tasks rather than having to programme every single move separately. Issues with labour supply and opportunities in healthcare are also driving interest.
