Forget chatbots. Physical and embodied AI are now coming for your job

Physical AI and Embodied AI, which allow bots to understand and navigate the real world—are powering the robot revolution.

Amazon recently announced that it had deployed its one-millionth robot across its workforce since rolling out its first bot in 2012. The figure is astounding from a sheer numbers perspective, especially considering that we’re talking about just one company. The one million bot number is all the more striking, though, since it took Amazon merely about a dozen years to achieve. It took the company nearly 30 years to build its current workforce of 1.5 million humans.
