Xiaomi Robots Begin 8-Hour Shifts: Is the Job Security of Workers Still Stable?
小米机器人开启8小时排班 打工人的饭碗还稳吗？
On November 3, Lei Jun released a video showing Xiaomi humanoid robots completing an 8-hour stable operation at a car factory's dashboard side cover sorting station. The robots achieved this after progressing from 3 hours of continuous operation in March with a 90.2% bilateral installation success rate to 98% by July, and finally handling a full shift in November. This event marks a transition from demonstration to actual scheduling in production lines. The article discusses the implications for human labor, noting that while robots may replace difficult or undesirable jobs, they also force a re-evaluation of human labor value, pushing workers towards higher-skill roles like robot maintenance and debugging rather than simple repetitive tasks.
