The Great Power of Times

Chapter 532: Technology is advancing, and human beings are losing their jobs

Robot Andrew and Tmall unmanned supermarkets became popular in the United States for a while, leading the development of the industry.

The Andrew model artificial intelligence robot has become popular before it is sold. As of the end of September, on the official website of Cronos Industrial Sales, the number of scheduled users has exceeded 5 million. Everyone is almost snapping up, for fear that the robot Andrew's production capacity will not be enough.

Li Zetian looked at the number of orders and was in a daze. He did not expect so many users to buy the robot Andrew.

"The Andrew model's artificial intelligence robot looks like a robot made of steel. It is no different from a car, a mobile phone, and other products. If it is a robot of Eve's level, then the whole world will be in chaos!" Li Zetian pondered. , "Eve, an advanced artificial intelligence robot, cannot be produced casually, and the quantity must be controlled!"

After the Chronos Industrial Conference, Li Zetian was surprised that 5 million Andrew robots were pre-sold in less than a month.

"Can the production capacity of robot Andrew keep up?" Li Zetian called the CEO of Chronos Industries and asked.

The artificial intelligence robot production factory of Koronos Industries not only produces robots of the Andrew model, but also the "tally robot" Dabai and more robots.

"Completely keeping up, we can produce 7 million Andrew robots every month!!" A slightly muffled male voice came from the other end of the phone, "Now 16 million Andrew robots have been shipped to all parts of the world, and it is guaranteed that October 1st to meet supply needs!!!”

"Yeah!" Li Zetian was relieved when he heard the words.

On October 1st, the flagship store supplied by Chronos began to sell the Andrew model robot. Pre-order users can go to the flagship store to pick up the goods in person, or they can wait for the company's express delivery to be delivered to their door.

However, many people couldn't wait and queued up at the gate of the flagship store one night in advance, wanting to get the robot as soon as possible.

The flagship store of Chronos Industries is very large, with rows of Andrew robots standing upright, like a powerful army, which is spectacular.

Users who walked into the store could not help but be stunned.

"My God, so many robots are so spectacular, they almost scared me to death."

"So many robots can form a robot army. It's very cool to take them out!"

"Chronos Industries is also an arms company. Maybe it has secretly developed a lot of military robots... I rub it, I suddenly feel shivering. If there is a powerful robot armed force, who would dare to challenge Chronos Li?"

"The robot army will absolutely destroy any army on earth!"

"I'm afraid that the robots will rebel in the future, then it will be a tragedy for human beings!"

"Should not... unless ordered by Chronos Li!"

"Ouch, Chronos Li is getting more and more crazy now!!!"

While discussing and sighing, everyone took out the activation code and ID card to activate their robot.

After multiple encryption methods such as password, fingerprint, iris, face recognition, voice, etc., the main program of robot activation and recognition ends. Then, under the guidance of the staff, users had a deeper understanding of Andrew.

In addition, Koronos Industries also provides each user with a detailed robot manual.

"Sir, you must have understood the basic situation of the robot Andrew. You can take him away now! If there is anything you don't understand, you can check the robot manual."

"Okay," one user asked. "Oh, by the way, how do I recognize my bots? They all look the same..."

The staff pointed to the robot's chest and replied with a smile, "It's easy to recognize. You see, each robot has its own number, which is located in the upper right corner of the chest. For example, your robot's number is ABC10001."

"Okay, I get it now."

"Okay, sir, I wish you shopping and entertainment. By the way, I would like to remind you at last that the Andrew robot is also equipped with a voice recognition system. As long as you talk to him more, he will gradually become familiar with your voice."

The users happily took their robots and left from the exit. These robots followed their masters and followed suit.

Soon, a large number of robots began to appear on the streets, which could not help attracting onlookers.

Sales of Andrew's robots were booming for weeks at a time.

Even at the high price of $3,500, everyone is close.

Andrew Robot's reputation is overwhelming, and everyone's satisfaction with him is very high.

A Weibo V user wrote on his Weibo: "Haha, since I bought Andrew Robot, I don't have to cook by myself anymore! Just download the Robot Chef app and Andrew can instantly become a top hotelier Chef! However, it takes money to download these applications. Depending on the level of the chef, the price of the software ranges from a few dollars to a few hundred dollars. The most expensive robot chef application software is naturally the Michelin Chef application software, which sells for Priced at $250, it almost collects the craftsmanship of all the Michelin chefs at the moment! Needless to say, after downloading the software, Andrew's cooking skills have become super awesome, and I have gained several pounds now! Woohoo, I It feels like the chefs are about to die…”

There are a lot of people commenting below.

"Yeah, Andrew is so awesome, he's an almighty housekeeper, he can do anything, it's great!!!"

"My mother bought Andrew for me, and I don't have to worry about my studies in the future. Andrew is smarter than our teacher. Ask him anything, and he will!"

"Go out with Andrew, super face, and immediately become the focus of everyone, haha!"

"… "

After only one month, Kronos Industries sold nearly 20 million Andrew robots in total. After the data was released, it immediately caused a huge sensation in the industry.

All of a sudden, robot companies around the world have announced their entry into the home robot market.

In the past month, more than 3,000 robotics companies have been established in the Silicon Valley area, which is jaw-dropping. And venture capital firms active in Silicon Valley probably invested nearly $5 billion.

However, the threshold for robots is very high, and you can't enter if you want to. The big waves wash the sand, and most robot companies will go out of business.

Cronos Industry has an absolute advantage, and it will be stronger in the future. To dare to enter the robot industry without any background is simply courting death!

At this time, not only Andrew, the home robot of Koronos Industries, was extremely popular, but industrial robots were also popular. Every day factories from all over the world buy robots from Cronos Industries.

It is not difficult to see that the development trend of future factories is becoming more and more obvious, that is, unmanned factories! ! !

With the rapid rise of unmanned factories, the number of unemployed people around the world has increased wildly. Among them, the United States is the most serious.

President Garr is having a hard time right now.

Now it's not just a problem with Li Zetian's family, but all American factories do it.

In addition, Tmall unmanned supermarket has also made a "good start", which has led to more retail stores developing towards "unmanned stores".

And near downtown Los Angeles, an Amazon unmanned library was born, firing the first shot of the unmanned library.

President Garr now feels sick and scared when he hears the word "no one."

Right now, President Garr's approval ratings have plummeted.

At this moment, Li Zetian made persistent efforts and set his sights on the unmanned vehicle project.

Self-driving car projects have been in development for many years, and the technologies involved are quite mature.

In early December, Li Zetian came to Tesla Motors.

"Mr. Li, with our efforts, the California government has passed laws and regulations related to driverless cars!" Tesla Motors CEO laughed.

Li Zetian nodded, the United States is a federal country, and the states are almost independent from the federation, so they have independent laws. The Governor of California and many members of the Congress are from their own side and want to pass laws and regulations related to driverless cars. is very easy.

"How is the test result of the driverless car?" Li Zetian asked.

"Since last year, Tesla's driverless car has been tested in Los Angeles during the rush hour, with a total of 8 accidents. However, after improvement, only 1 accident occurred in the past six months."

There is only one accident in half a year, which has proved the power of driverless cars. Even old drivers may not be able to guarantee that no accidents will occur in half a year.

The CEO of Tesla Motors said to himself: "I believe that with the improvement of driverless technology, Tesla's self-driving cars will become safer than our own driving cars! Humans will be sleepy, distracted, and Seeking speed thrills, but robots don't!"

Li Zetian nodded in agreement.

"In the first half of next year, can we officially launch Tesla's unmanned vehicles?" Li Zetian asked.

"Yes," the CEO of Tesla Motors nodded and said, "It should be ready for mass production in March next year!"

Li Zetian was overjoyed when he heard the words, and then said: "I will let Uber contact you to order a batch of unmanned vehicles, and provide users with Uber unmanned taxi service in the future!"

The CEO of Tesla Motors was stunned for a while when he heard the words.

Uber self-driving taxi service, what about Uber drivers? Are you going to fire them

Thinking that Uber's unmanned cars will be popular all over the world in the future, and Uber drivers will lose their jobs, the heart of the Tesla Motors CEO suddenly trembled...
