"Chancellor Friedrich Merz visited the Agile Robots stand, where he talked to Zhaopeng Chen, the Chinese founder of the Munich-based startup. In a speech at the fair, Merz threw his support behind the drive to encourage German manufacturers, many of whom still rely on traditional techniques, to step up their use of AI."
"AI should be 'embedded in the key sectors of our industry and especially' in small- and medium-sized firms, the backbone of the German economy, to create 'industrial added value and high-quality jobs', he said."
"Such AI-boosted robots make it possible to 'actually solve industrial problems', Rory Sexton, chief executive of Agile Robots, told AFP in an interview."
Humanoid robots demonstrated advanced physical AI skills at an industrial trade fair in Hanover, emphasizing the potential for AI to enhance Germany's manufacturing sector. Chancellor Merz endorsed AI technologies as essential for revitalizing German industry, particularly in small- and medium-sized enterprises. The focus on embedding AI into industrial processes aims to help Europe compete with the US and China. Agile Robots plans to implement AI solutions in German factories, especially in the automotive sector, starting next year, addressing the need for modernization in traditional manufacturing techniques.
