Humanoid robots could need up to 10 years for a ChatGPT-level leap

Unitree founder Wang Xingxing said the next breakthrough for humanoid robots comparable to ChatGPT may still take as long as a decade.

Humanoid robots may not deliver a breakthrough comparable to ChatGPT for up to 10 years, according to comments from Unitree founder Wang Xingxing, cited by CNBC.

The executive suggested the field is still years away from a transformative moment similar to the impact ChatGPT had in generative AI.

CNBC also highlighted the timeline as part of a broader discussion about how quickly humanoid robots could advance toward more capable, humanlike performance.
