as posted by the channel

Humanoid robots that use AI are moving from viral videos to real-world work. From artificial intelligence training and data gaps to factory trials and global competition, companies are racing to turn “physical AI” into reality. But with billions of dollars being invested, the bigger question remains: will humanoids ever deliver enough real-world value to justify the hype?

Bloomberg Primer cuts through the complex jargon to reveal the business behind technologies poised to transform global markets. This six-part, planet-spanning series offers a comprehensive look at the "impossible" industries vying to shape our future.
