The Rise of Humanoid Robots in the Workforce
Humanoid robots are increasingly being integrated into the workforce to perform menial tasks such as stacking, sorting, and lifting. The demand for these robots has surged due to advancements in artificial intelligence and decreasing production costs, leading to robots that resemble humans in size and shape.
