    China increased its industrial robot installations in 2024 even as major global markets saw declines, according to preliminary data from the International Federation of Robotics (IFR).

    The country recorded a 5 percent rise to about 290,000 units, accounting for 54 per cent of the world’s total, up from 51 percent in 2023. In contrast, the global installation volume fell to around 520,000 units.

    I don’t care who builds it

    I don’t even care if it spies on me walking around in my skivvies

    We can genetically alter dna
    We can send drone attacks to pinpoint locations
    We can have factory robots that do the work of people, thus people losing jobs

    But I still have to wash the dishes. What is this crap

    Same thing that happened in the 2000’s. While the rest of the world was involved in some war, (thanks america!) china was full stop building out it’s micro electronics industry and it’s rail system.

    They left us behind once and they’re gonna do it again. The US is so cooked.

  7. Over the next 50 years China is going to run circles around the rest of the world.

    As if they aren’t already doing it now.
