A Few White Papers
you are currently viewing::Physical AI is changing manufacturing - here's what the era of intelligent robotics looks likeSeptember 9, 2025-Physical AI is driving a new phase of industrial automation, offering a powerful solution to manufacturing challenges like rising costs, labour shortages,and shifting customer demands.
Early adopters like Amazon and Foxconn are already seeing significant benefits, including improved efficiency, faster delivery times, and the creation of new skilled jobs. Automation helped shape the First Industrial Revolution – and it continues to evolve in today's Fourth. While automation has long been part of the manufacturing landscape, recent advances in artificial intelligence, vision systems and robotics hardware are enabling a new generation of more intelligent and adaptable machines. A new white paper from the World Economic Forum, Physical AI: Powering the New Age of Industrial Operations, explores how these developments are expanding the role of robotics - not just to boost efficiency, but to support greater flexibility and resilience on the factory floor.
