Europe looks to boost robotics and AI as China advances
The push comes about a decade after Germany’s Kuka was sold, highlighting a need to accelerate domestic robotics capacity.
The New York Times Business reports that Europe is trying to speed up its robotics and artificial intelligence push amid intense competition from China.
The outlet notes that even after Germany sold Kuka roughly a decade ago, Europe is now focused on catching up by expanding momentum in robotics and related AI capabilities.
The report frames the effort as part of a broader race with China, with European stakeholders seeking to unlock what they see as significant potential in next generation automation.
