A Chinese company founded under a year ago claims its AI-powered robot can perform a task many humans struggle with. It could end up being a big deal.

If you're wondering what that means or how LG aim to achieve it, the answer is mostly jargon. Shared on its CES blog and store page, LG says, "it starts with YOU affectionately through sensing and understanding, further caring for your life."

Factory robots will soon be tackling complex, dynamic and dexterous tasks previously unattainable with traditional automation.

An AI-enabled robot can carry on such processes by autonomously handling delivery, restocking and routing within set predefined limits. With the ability to change routes, avoid busy environments and respond to staff requests, these adaptive robots minimize disruptions for clinical teams, enhancing workflow efficiency.

Korean automaker Hyundai and its subsidiary, Boston Dynamics, unveil a sweeping artificial intelligence robotics strategy at the CES trade show Monday in Las Vegas.

The GENE.01 humanoid robot is equipped with a full-body tactile skin, a distributed network of touch and force sensors covering its surface. This layer will allow the robot to sense contact, pressure, and even subtle physical interactions across its entire body.

Sometimes, AI just wants to be your friend. And while robot pets weren’t the biggest stars of CES 2026, they’ve become more than just noise and are signaling how AI is apparently leaving our screens and taking on a physical presence in our lives.

US President Donald Trump claims robots and artificial intelligence will boost US jobs, not destroy them. But will AI really create more work or replace human workers?

There is no question that 2026 is already set up to be something of a continuance of 2025, at least in the sense of moving deeper into the world of AI, automation, and robotics. As companies deploy AI at scale and industrial robots continue to replace human labor slowly,
