BYD Says Physical AI Highly Complex, Rolling Out Robots from Simple Scenarios
At a September 1 discussion, BYD said its tens of thousands of software engineers see AI significantly boosting efficiency in coding and standardized tasks, with AI already used from office tools to quality inspection. In robotics, BYD has invested in several companies and is advancing internal R&D and manufacturing, noting physical AI's complexity and a gradual rollout from simple scenarios.
During a themed discussion on September 1, BYD said it employs tens of thousands of software R&D engineers, and that artificial intelligence has significantly improved efficiency in standardized tasks such as code writing and programming. From office tools to quality inspection, AI is already widely applied across BYD and is regarded as one of the company's key strategic directions for the future.
In the robotics sector, BYD has invested in several robotics companies and is also advancing related R&D and manufacturing internally. BYD noted that physical AI is extremely complex, with the diversity and unpredictability of human movements far exceeding those in autonomous driving scenarios. The company is therefore gradually advancing robotics applications, starting from simple scenarios.
