US leads in LLM / software, but when you look into the companies that do AI, most of the AI engineers / researchers are Chinese anyways. So technically American Chinese vs PRC Chinese.

In the Space Race it was our Nazi scientists versus Russia’s Nazi scientists. Wernher von Braun was the head of the SaturnV program. That is the rocket that got us to the moon. He was also in charge of the V2 rocket program during WWII.

There is no technicality. Only fools bank on ethnicity.
In extremis, only your State will save you.

*Really? US lead in LLM? Somehow China used less computational power achieved similar perforance as the ones with almost unlimited computational power 🙂 I know my comment is not going to be published but it’s okay*

A humanoid robot is, of course, very interesting, but it’s more about emotions. It is perceived more emotionally by people. For work, however, a human-like structure is not the best option. For example, for work at a factory, this is not the best option, and quite difficult. Also for work in warehouses, it is inefficient. For work in supermarkets, for the distribution of goods, it is inefficient. But it is good as a companion of a human.

China is undergoing a significant transformation in humanoid robotics, underscoring China priority placed on this technology.
China has witnessed remarkable acceleration in the development of humanoid robots with continuous technological innovation, enhancing the robots’ mobility, intelligence, and interactive capabilities, which lays a solid foundation for more widespread adoption.
China filing 5,688 humanoid robotics patents over the past five years, nearly four times the 1,483 filed by the US.
Companies such as Unitree Robotics have launched cost-effective models like the R1 humanoid priced at $5,900, showcasing athletic capabilities including running and cartwheels.
The integration of AI is central to China’s strategy, with breakthroughs in robot “brains” enabling autonomous learning and complex task execution, moving beyond pre-programmed functions.
China’s coordinated efforts in industrial application and AI integration are positioning it as a dominant force in the global humanoid robotics race, challenging traditional leaders and reshaping the future of manufacturing and service industries.

Is any thing of significance that China is NOT leading us?
Arrogance?
Egotistical behavior?

I don’t understand the fascination with humanoid robots.
Robots should look different. Imagine experiments to make humanoid pets, it’d feel icky, no? How are robots any different?!

I want humanoid robots to do construction work. We have severe labor shortages in that field.

What is really strong on China’s robot industry is not what you’re seeing in the game studio or demonstration exhibits but what is behind yhe scene: sophisticated and complete supply chain. China can manufacture all critical parts for robot assembling. Any other countries or companies including the US and Tesla that want to develop their own products must buy parts from China.
