The Chinese startup plans to deploy its technology in 1,000 stores over the next year and eventually pursue an IPO. Humanoid robots can walk, dance, and box, but getting them to perform useful work in the unpredictable physical world reliably remains one of artificial intelligence’s biggest challenges. ACE Robotics Chairman Wang Xiaogang believes advances in AI models and real-world training data could soon give robots the intelligence needed to move beyond demonstrations and into commercial use, according to a report by Reuters.
