Rise of the Robots: Breakthroughs in Humanoid Robotics and the Dawn of Embodied AI

Is your head still spinning from all the AI news of late? It will all seem so quaint when the useful humanoid robots arrive.

This post tracks some of the recent breakthroughs in humanoids, with a focus on the humanoid robots with Embodied AI.

Let me start with a prediction: By the end of 2024, humanoid robots with Embodied AI will be able to perform useful tasks at scale. They will be proven as useful in manufacturing, warehousing, store operations/restocking and hospital/healthcare operations. By the end of 2025, humanoid robots will proliferate into homes.

We have all been watching the rise of automation, but few will be prepared for this exponential shift.
