According to @ai_darpa, UBTECH is leading a significant advance in industrial automation by supplying hundreds of Walker S2 humanoid robots to BYD and Foxconn, with confirmed orders surpassing 800 million yuan. Evaluations at BYD have shown a 120 percent increase in component sorting efficiency, demonstrating the practical impact of AI-driven robotics in manufacturing. UBTECH aims to deliver 1,000 Walker S2 units by the end of 2025 and 10,000 by 2026, highlighting a transformative shift in China's smart factory sector and offering substantial business opportunities for scalable AI-powered robotics deployments (source: @ai_darpa, Nov 15, 2025).

According to AI News (@AINewsOfficial_) and Elon Musk's recent statements, Tesla is preparing for mass production of its Optimus humanoid robot by 2026, with a target of more than 10 million units per year. Musk discussed in a video interview (source: YouTube, 2025-11-11) that new industrial and commercial use cases are emerging for AI-powered robotics that were previously unforeseen. This large-scale deployment of AI-driven humanoids is expected to revolutionize workforce automation in manufacturing, logistics, and even consumer services. For businesses, this represents an unprecedented opportunity to integrate advanced AI robotics to reduce labor costs, enhance operational efficiency, and explore innovative service models. Industry analysts note that if realized, Tesla’s scale could set new benchmarks for AI robotics adoption worldwide (source: AI News, Twitter, 2025-11-11).
