The excitement around this venture doesn’t surround the humanoids, but rather its manufacturing capabilities; its ability to produce humanoid robots at a scale that few companies can. “The market will keep a close watch on other details like its production capacity and prices of the robots.”
As Tesla’s China president Allan Wang Hao said, they could “eventually manufacture humanoid robots,” as they haven’t successfully released Optimus into the commercial sector. And, with Xpend expected to unleash 1,000 robots upon us, we’ve officially entered the race to introduce humanoids into the labor force. Xpend expects that to happen in 2027. The race against Tesla is on. Even Musk believes that Tesla and China will meet head-to-head. They will dominate this market – first intending to address gaps in manufacturing.
Will AI take over that human job? Parts of it, at least.
