What's new

It's started: Robot Uprising Begins as China Turns to Machines to Fill in Gaps in the Workforce

So it will be mostly service sector and managerial jobs..but don't you think...given the size of population of china..these jobs won't be enough???
I mean the whole world will eventually move to automation and replacing robots with men...but e.g EU countries have very less population they can manage it..but asian countries have huge population..n let's face the facts that not everyone is able to become an entrepreneur due to numerous reasons.
R&D will belong to only educated people..but the majority of people in aia live under poverty line..e.g the laborers..they will be simply out of job
As china is leading the world in automation, i think china should start focusing on finding an alternative for these low level workers.

Think of it as Constipation. it's nasty and painful at first, but once it's out, you will feel much better. I see the automation push as inevitable, countries who do not do this will be left so far behind, it's gonna be industrial revolution 2.0 but afterwards, things will become super efficient.. people may actual have time to do other more productive things.

Yes will be .. because the economic size will be folded much due to efficiency (automation), hence million entrepreneurship could be created including the services job.

New kind of services including social services that we can't imagine now would be created.

And we will work slower with good balance of life certainly. And this is a kind of wealth improvement.

Correct.

But in the future - product & service development activities will be highly demanded due to the booming of small enterpreneurship in the environment demanding innovation. Then there will be "Shifting" where people will go to at least bachelor educations or kind of extensional education to prepare people for R&D will be created as well, and the enterpreneur may not demand PhD or Master degree for that kind of jobs due to high demand in the market.

IF it happen gradually, the shifting will happen automatically. But if it happen fast, then government need to intervene by pushing most people to go to higher education. Otherwise the automation will impair the economic due to fall of demand side (product supply abundant due to automation, but demand fall due to unemployment => economic disaster).

Chinese scientists successfully develop flexible multifunctional bionic robot

A flexible multifunctional bionic robot that can climb walls, cross over obstacles, and stick to surfaces has been successfully developed by Chinese scientists, according to the Second Academy of China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation, China News reported on Nov. 21.

The robot, weighing 5 kilograms with a length of less than 1 meter, can be used to carry out scanning, detecting, and monitoring tasks on surfaces of ships, vessels, and oil tanks, according to the academy.

The research project was established in 2016, when most glass walls of office buildings were cleaned by humans, which is both difficult and dangerous. The research team hopes that its robot can help solve this problem.

The research team will continue to optimize the design of the robot, improve the integration level, and equip it with other functions, including visual navigation. The robot is expected to enter the market in 2018.

SOEs are adopting to and developing frontier technologies.

Some of them. Most of them are in fact heavily in debt. Debt which exceeds the entire gdp of China.

Also, a lot of them despite their size are very weak at innovation like sinopec, chem China, etc.

Eric Schmidt, the executive chairman of Alphabet, answered questions about the future of Artificial Intelligence and quantum computers and robots.

Highlights from Schmidt –

* The rise of China will be the big news for the rest of our lives… in an economic, cultural, structural sense.

* China’s artificial intelligence machine-learning policy
– behind right now,
– catch up by 2020
– get ahead by 2025
– dominate by 2030

Applying tens of billions of dollars and mobilizing about ten times the number of tech educated grads

* For the next five years, AI will enhance human roles. Like AI+ doctor for better diagnosis. In 10-15 years, AI will assist with answering difficult and deep problem analysis.

* AI will use large data sets

* One is the development of quantum computing and how that changes everything [in regards to security].

* Implications are big for robotic-AI autonomy

I wonder how those robots don't crash into each other in that busy traffic...
 
Are all robots made by Chinese companies?. That shows off Chinese quality.

Yesterday Vietnamese VTV1 aired the show of 1000 drones in Guangzhou, all controlled by one operator with one computer. That was so impressive.

Superior control system by Chinese. I bet other countries system will overload and crushed. Things from China is getting from good to best.

Looks like every robot has a collision avoidance system, takes a programmed route that can be changed by a central computer. A series of wireless access points mounted on the hall ceiling transmits commands from computer to the robots. I believe have seen similar systems in German factories. Ha ha.
 
China's mass production of industrial robots has reached over 100,000 for the first ten months of this year (2017).

The economic impact is straightforward. Mass production of industrial robots leads to large installations of more affordable Chinese industrial robots. Industrial robots are more productive than expensive human labor.

Productivity goes up. Costs go down. Profits go up. Thus, in the Bloomberg citation below, we see that Chinese corporate debt levels are the "lowest in at least 11 years."

"Improving profit margins are boosting corporate-debt metrics."
