Mercedes Puts Humanoid Robots To Work At Berlin Production Site – The robots are being used to perform repetitive tasks and initial quality checks

From the article

For decades, car factories have relied on massive [industrial robots](https://www.carscoops.com/tag/robots/) to help build vehicles. Now, some of these plants are stepping it up with cutting-edge humanoid robots. Mercedes-Benz is the latest automaker to jump on the bandwagon, kicking off a trial of these robots at one of its German sites.

While there’s always the concern that robots might start stealing jobs, the good news for Mercedes employees is that their positions seem safe—at least for the time being.

Mercedes-Benz isn’t the only car manufacturer testing the waters with this kind of tech. Tesla is continuing development on its own humanoid robot, while [BMW](https://www.carscoops.com/tag/BMW/) started using advanced robots at its South Carolina plant last year.
