A Few Thoughts on Robotics The criticism that robotics can only be used in a rather one-sided way is, at the same time, the solution to the problem. What do I mean by that? Since the Industrial Revolution, humanity has increasingly made production methods more efficient. Fordism introduced assembly line work, but this comes at the expense of monotonous, repetitive tasks. On the one hand, immense wealth has been created; on the other hand, countless people suffer from repetitive tasks, which are a direct consequence of that industrial revolution and the division of labor- in other words, assembly line work. The debate about whether AI and robotics could impact the labor market is answered in different ways. I have a clear opinion on this: Up to now, technology has merely been an augmentation, an improvement of human labor to make it more effective. Robotics and AI, however, represent a qualitative break with this situation. For the first time in human history, it won't be humans who become more efficient, but rather replaceable, insofar as human augmentation becomes *less* efficient than replacing human labor with robotics. In just a few years, a human using technology will simply be less efficient than a robot that doesn't know an eight-hour day, weekends, or holidays, but can perform monotonous tasks 24/7 on an assembly line without breaking down due to physical ailments or needing medical attention. Wear and tear simply means replacing specific parts of the robot. To return to the initial question: production doesn't require general-purpose robots capable of performing a wide variety of tasks, but rather specialized robots that excel at the specific tasks for which they are needed. Figure02 vividly illustrates why this is only now possible: even the simplest assembly line work still requires delicate manual dexterity because the production line is designed for human hands. This breakthrough has now arrived, but AGI (Automated Generating Intelligence) isn't necessary for robots to be used in production processes. It's sufficient that they can perform monotonous tasks. And that's why I believe 2026 will be the year of the robots. (Clip: Figure02 in production chain at BMW Car-production)

500 humanoid robots replacing humans in high-voltage operations What does that look like? Steel against steel,instead of flesh and blood. This marks a turning point for China’s State Grid, shifting from human-based maintenance to autonomous operations. This year, State Grid announced plans to procure 8,500 embodied AI robots, with a total budget of RMB 6.8 billion (~$1 billion). These robots will be deployed across four major scenarios: power inspection, live-line operations, emergency response, and warehouse logistics,covering more than 600 specific task scenarios. Among them, humanoid robots for live-line operations are the most expensive and strategically critical: 500 units with a budget of RMB 2.5 billion (~$370 million). They will be deployed in distribution network live-line work and ultra-high-voltage (UHV) projects, replacing humans in high-risk tasks. Workers will transition into supervisory roles, ready to take over remotely when needed. As early as last year, State Grid had already validated the feasibility of humanoid robots for substation inspection. Tienkung can autonomously perform inspection tasks at a State Grid substation in Beijing. Of course, suppliers are not limited to X-Humanoid,players like Unitree, AGIBOT, DeepRobotics, UBTECH, and Fourier are all involved. These 500 humanoid robots will also collaborate with 5,000 inspection quadruped robots and 3,000 dual-arm wheeled robots for indoor substation maintenance,together forming an intelligent, automated, and collaborative network for autonomous grid operations. What does this change? According to State Grid, each embodied AI unit can save RMB 500,000 to 800,000 (~$70,000–$110,000) in annual labor costs, with a payback period of around 2–3 years. Inspection efficiency increases by 5x, fault response time is reduced by 60%, and power supply reliability improves by 0.5 percentage points. More importantly, over 90% of human exposure to high-risk operations can be eliminated, reducing safety incidents by 80%. At another level, for humanoid robot companies, the center of R&D and iteration is shifting to the customer site. Real-world physical interaction becomes the fastest feedback loop,accelerating innovation and evolution. And 8,500 units are just the beginning of scaled deployment. Based on current plans, embodied AI robots will cover 30% of key areas in State Grid by 2026, 80% of high-risk operation scenarios by 2027, and enable fully autonomous operations by 2030. The demand roadmap is clear: define use cases ->deploy at scale->improve models and robots->expand further. 8,500… 50,000… 100,000… But remember,power grids are just one part of China’s vast infrastructure system. The experience of autonomous robotic operations here can be replicated across other sectors, such as broader energy systems. That, in itself, is another story. P.S.The video shows Tienkung 1.0 autonomously performing substation inspection tasks (2025).

China’s construction tech is on another level! If you still picture construction sites with tones of workers swinging hammers, you’re officially stuck in the 90s. In China they’re out here building skyscrapers like it’s a speedrun challenge, with a tech stack that would make Silicon Valley jealous. AI-Powered Smart Sites Drones, IoT sensors, and AI are managing construction sites better than some human managers. Real-time safety alerts, automated progress tracking, and even predictive maintenance are standard tools, not fancy bonuses. Green Building Technologies Solar panels built into facades. Rainwater harvesting embedded into skyscrapers. Buildings that regulate their own temperature to save energy, not future dreams, but today’s standards. Robotics in Construction From brick-laying robots to rebar-tying machines, construction crews in China now have mechanical teammates with no lunch breaks, no grumbling. Welcome to Construction 2.0 (China Edition) Humans supervising, robots building! Gone are the days when a construction site meant a hundred+ guys with shovels. In China’s construction sites today, the machines are the real MVPs, humans mostly sip coffee and supervise. Bricklaying Human hands? Please. Robotic arms now lay bricks faster, straighter, and neater than your uncle’s weekend DIY projects. Some can lay 1,000+ bricks an hour and never ask for overtime. Excavation Remember digging trenches with shovels? That’s adorable. Now AI-guided autonomous excavators carve the earth with GPS-level precision while operators chill in air-conditioned control rooms. Concrete Pouring Giant robotic nozzles squeezing out entire building frames like they’re icing a wedding cake. Layers and layers, no sweat, no mess, no “oops, we need to redo that wall.” Welding You think shaky human hands are still melting steel together? Nah. Robot welders buzz and spark with perfect, tireless accuracy, even in places that are too risky for humans to reach. Inspection Sending humans to climb scaffolding 50 stories up? Very 2002. Now drones buzz around construction sites like paparazzi, scanning every beam, bolt, and brick, spotting defects before a human eye would even blink. Material Transport Why carry things manually when you can have self-driving forklifts and delivery bots moving steel, concrete, and pipes faster than an Amazon Prime truck? Site Monitoring Forget some guy in a neon vest wandering around with a clipboard. Today it’s AI-driven command centers tracking thousands of data points: worker safety, machinery health, material delivery schedules all from one giant screen. Project Planning Old: Paper blueprints and arguing architects. New: AI and BIM (Building Information Modeling) simulate the entire building in virtual reality before the first brick is even printed. This video shows how construction sites in China are now using robots to handle tasks like rebar placement, concrete pouring, and polishing, which has led to a 50% reduction in the workforce at some projects. The robots are proving to be more efficient, with one project's furnace robot achieving a 20% efficiency increase in just 5 days, saving 5% on labor costs. The construction company is developing even more advanced robots for future use as they work to improve smart construction technology for widespread real-time application. At China’s next-gen construction sites, humans don’t sweat, they strategize. Machines are not seen as luxury, they are seen as a necessity. Why does it matter? China is using 5G, AI, IoT, and robotics to build entire smart cities. And when the world comes looking for fast, sustainable, and scalable construction models… guess who’s already handing out the blueprints? Next time you hear: ‘Made in China,’ think bigger, it is: ‘Engineered for the future in China.’
