00:05Take a good look at these refined faces, and watch the expressions change.
00:10Think they're human?
00:11Guess again.
00:12They are humanoid robots, built right here in China.
00:16These hyper-realistic androids are just some of the new models driving growth in China's
00:21consumer humanoid robot industry, where output is projected to surpass 100,000 units this
00:28year.
00:28Designed for home-based elderly care, they converse naturally, monitor vital signs, and
00:34deliver medication reminders, among other advanced capabilities.
00:38But the real game-changer goes far beyond intelligence or functionality.
00:43It's the companionship they offer.
00:47The ultrabionic humanoid robot relies on a multimodal large model.
00:51First, it provides emotional value.
00:53Second, it serves as a life portal ecosystem, similar to a mobile app.
00:58It can help you order takeout, book flights, access remote medical consultations, arrange
01:04medicine delivery, and more.
01:06I think it's incredibly novel.
01:09It feels like opening a door to a whole new world.
01:13The pace of technological progress has far exceeded what we could have imagined.
01:17And this isn't a solo act.
01:19In June alone, more than 10 Chinese companies launched consumer humanoid robots.
01:25Of these, some specialize in companionship, engaging in natural conversation and subtle facial expressions.
01:32Others take on household chores like folding clothes and tidying up.
01:36But at this moment, the numbers aren't really the point.
01:40The point is that China's artificial intelligence has now gained warmth, a face, and the ability
01:47to keep you company, turning science fiction into everyday reality.
