Well, it's way nearer as you think, Chinese bots don't use an fixed program, they learn from one time by from human showed tasks or movements and can ajust it to the conditions using it's inbuild AI. There are several companies in a hard competition, not only in China, but also in the EU (more centred in service tasks) and naturally also the US. Current robotic is very advanced (IMHO too much)

    Being able to learn motions from people and reproduce them while preserving their balance and reacting to external forces is still the "easy" part. That they're still trying to impress with acrobatics that no real working robot would ever need to do, shows that the development of the abilities they need to do actual useful work and make economic sense isn't as far along as their investors would like it to be.

    That said, I'm sure we'll be seeing a pilot program where these will be doing "real" work soon, given how desperate investors are to will these into existence.

    They already do in facturies, the care of elder persons, in car shops, presenting and selling cars, hotels,.....robots are already wide spreaded and in China, also this models. The kung fu models are already used in security tasks. This videos and others are presentations showing the capability of movements. You can buy this bots, depending version between €8000 - 50.000, more or less as a car.
