For people who are not aware, "Yao-Shun-Yu" are the first three (half-mythical) kings of China. They are famous for their altruism and kindness.
At this point, I am not even sure naming robots after human rulers is dystopian or not.

I wonder if Elon Musk is laughing his ass off about BYD making robots, like he did about their EV cars?

In China BYD is now selling 5 times more EV cars than Tesla!!

Now Musk claims his stupid AI and Robots that aren't even competitive today, will be worth billions or rather trillions in the future.
My guess is the competition will walk all over him in every field, because Tesla is lagging behind now even on EV where they had a solid head start. Elon Musk does not have a head start on robotics and AI, and I doubt Neither SpaceX (XAI) or Shitter (Grok) or Tesla (Optimus) will ever make a profit on any of their AI products.
Maybe BYD won't either, but I give them a way better chance than anything Musk related.

Basically a benchmark for modern chinese batteries, engines and machine learning. Would definetely look into how far they can take it.

The only reason to make a robot humanoid is to fuck it. Every other use-case doesn't need human limitations or complexity.
Why design hips, knees, ankles, coordination, and balance when wheels exist?
Humanoid robots are a scam.

Do they fall over and kick off their own legs?
Hmm i dont like it. Time to dump my BYD Shares i guess.
How will Lemmites decide which circle to jerk?
China good or AI bad?
