"Today, agentic AI can help computers take action. But that technology will manifest in the physical world through data from cameras, sensors, lidar, and other data-gathering instruments. "Physical AI perceives the world, reasons about its environment, and outputs actions," Briski said. With physical AI, Nvidia envisions the inclusion of AI in robotics, machines, autonomous vehicles, and physical devices. "The modern factory is robotic, with humans and robots working alongside each other. Robots will do the dangerous jobs, and workers will do the skilled jobs,""
"The US is investing about $1.2 trillion to advance high-tech manufacturing and production, driven by electronics. That effort aims to counter a global labor shortage of 50 million workers worldwide, (including 4 million in the US). Physical AI and robotics can fill that gap, Nvidia believes. "We just don't have enough people...," Briski said. "Robots and physical AI are our answer. We're not replacing jobs, we're filling the ones that don't have enough people to fill.""
Nvidia positions physical AI as the next evolution of generative AI, enabling systems that perceive, reason about environments, and take physical action. Physical AI will use data from cameras, sensors, lidar, and other instruments to operate in robotics, machines, autonomous vehicles, and devices. Modern factories will pair humans and robots, with robots handling dangerous tasks and workers performing skilled jobs. The US is investing about $1.2 trillion to advance high-tech manufacturing to help counter a global labor shortage of roughly 50 million workers. Physical AI and robotics are framed as solutions to fill unstaffed roles, not as direct job replacements. Generative AI is changing work similarly to past industrial revolutions and the Internet.
