A warning is emerging from Chinaโ€™s leading economic planning agency that a bubble may be forming in the countryโ€™s humanoid robotics industry. On Thursday, the National Development and Reform Commission cautioned that the sectorโ€™s rapid growth needs to be carefully balanced against the associated risks. Spokesperson Li Chaosaid that concerns are mounting over a potential bubble in the broader artificial intelligence industry. Despite a significant influx of investment, many of Chinaโ€™s more than 150 humanoid robotics companies โ€“ which include over half that are startups or ventures from other sectors โ€“ currently lack proven applications for their technology. This situation raises the prospect of a flood of โ€œhighly similarโ€ models as funding for research and development diminishes.
