Humanoid robots have become one of the hottest investment themes, with a basket of Asian-related stocks rising more than 70% over the past year. The technology stole the show at CES 2026 with eye-opening demos from Boston Dynamics and Unitree, while expectations for Tesla's Optimus are increasing as the company races toward production this year. Yet, expectations may be outpacing commercial reality. While some street estimates project revenue in the hundreds of billions, Bloomberg Intelligence takes a more measured view, forecasting a $5 billion total addressable market for automotive assembly by 2035. Takeshi Kitaura, senior industrials analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, joins host John Lee to dissect the sector's outlook. They explore the emergence of “physical AI”, the viability of replacing human labor on factory floors, and whether the US or China holds the advantage in this evolving race.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

John Johnston (JJ) breaks down the latest Elon Musk and Tesla news, including that Hyundai's Boston Dynamics has hired Tesl'a former head of Optimus, after he said he was leaving Tesla to spend more time with family. Elon has also said the Tesla is “almost done” with its A15 chip design, six months after saying it was already finished. Tesla is also ending its direct sales of FSD software, amid speculation it could be to avoid California's false advertising ban for Tesla. Tesla's Germany sales are also down a whopping 72% from their peak. Could this partly due to Elon's constant controversial posting on his own platform X?

Melodie explained that her interest in space architecture was sparked by the unique challenges and opportunities it presents, particularly in creating sustainable and habitable environments on other planets. She highlighted the importance of collaboration with engineers and researchers to develop innovative solutions for space habitation. Our Wisdom Team also touched on the potential for future publications and exhibitions related to Melodie's ongoing research in space architecture.Melodie discussed the evolution of space architecture, highlighting how commercial development in low Earth orbit has increased interest in creating hospitality-focused spaces for tourists and citizen astronauts. She shared her journey into space architecture, including her involvement in a NASA Centennial Challenge for a 3D printed habitat on Mars and subsequent work with NASA and private aerospace companies. Melodie also described her role at NASA Ames, where she researched the relationship between astronauts and autonomous systems, and her transition to Icon, where she helped commercialize large-scale additive manufacturing for housing and lunar applications.Our guest discussed her background in spatial planning and environmental design, highlighting the challenges in developing 3D printed structures for space habitats. She explained that while there is research on spatial planning, many questions remain about additively manufactured structures, particularly for large-scale, pressurized habitats. Melodie also described a recent project for a Mars habitat concept, expected to be completed by 2075-2080, and emphasized the importance of developing technologies that can integrate with both hard shell structures and soft goods for both lunar and Martian missions.Melodie and David talked about the feasibility of space colonization, particularly focusing on Mars and the moon. Melodie expressed skepticism about Elon Musk's timeline for sending humans to Mars, citing numerous unknowns and challenges. She emphasized the importance of publishing and sharing information to ensure the project's continuity beyond the current team. Melodie also mentioned her research on robot-to-robot interaction for autonomous operations in space, highlighting the need for further development in this area.The Space Show Wisdom Team discussed the challenges and potential of 3D printing habitats on the Moon and Mars, focusing on material properties and testing protocols. Melodie highlighted the need for Mars sample return data to understand regolith properties, while Haym noted that lunar soil testing on Earth could streamline processes but would still face challenges like electrostatic charging on the Moon. The conversation touched on AI's role in anticipating anomalies in 3D printed structures and the importance of sending small-scale tests to the Moon before launching a habitat-scale program. Melodie suggested that the technologies are ready for deployment, but a timeline for lunar construction was not explicitly stated.Our guest talked about plans for lunar construction, predicting infrastructure development within the next 5-10 years, and emphasized the need for multiple redundant construction systems, including hard shell structures and additively manufactured components.

The conversation concluded with a brief discussion about lava tube habitats, though no specific work on this topic by Melodie's team was mentioned.The lava tube topic continued with an examination of the feasibility of living in lava tubes for deep space radiation protection, noting that while this is viable, traditional construction methods and pressurization remain challenges. They explored the difficulties of deploying construction equipment in lava tubes and considered large-scale space elevators as potential solutions. David emphasized the significant gap between current reality and the vision of space settlement, while Haym Benaroya highlighted the additional complexity of biology in space. Melodie shared her research on robotic construction in space, discussing the shift from single-task robots to humanoid robotics, though she expressed skepticism about their effectiveness in space environments due to radiation and regolith challenges.David and Haym Benaroya discussed the current limitations of robotics in construction, particularly on the Moon and Mars. They highlighted that while robots can perform simple tasks in controlled environments like manufacturing plants, replicating complex human movements for construction is still far from being achieved. David referenced a recent 60 Minutes segment on Boston Dynamics' Atlas robot, which struggled with basic movements like a jumping jack, emphasizing the technological challenges ahead. Haym added that reliability and maintainability are crucial for space missions, noting that even advanced robots require constant maintenance and support systems. They concluded that while automation in space construction is a long-term goal, significant progress and adaptation of current technology are necessary before it becomes feasible.The panel discussed the value and feasibility of space exploration, with Melodie emphasizing that space technology benefits multiple industries on Earth, though the benefits may take decades to manifest. Haym Benaroya highlighted space as a positive mission attracting bright students and fostering economic growth through dual-use development. The group explored the potential for naming lunar or Martian structures after key figures, though Melodie noted differences in procurement mechanisms for space versus terrestrial architecture. John Jossy invited Melodie to speak at the National Space Society's ISDC conference in June, and the panel discussed the formation and goals of Melodie's company, Anara, which focuses on 3D printing and robotic construction in space.

This episode of Deep Dive provides a comprehensive recap of CES 2026, highlighting a pivotal shift in the technology landscape from Generative AI (chatbots) to "Agentic AI" and "Physical AI." The discussion focuses on how AI is moving beyond the screen and cloud into the physical world to become the foundational infrastructure of consumer technology. The hosts explain that this new era is defined by "agency"—software that proactively anticipates user needs and executes tasks across devices without waiting for prompts—marking a departure from the passive tools of the past few years. The episode details specific innovations driving this shift, particularly the rise of local AI processing on PCs and smartphones to ensure privacy and speed (the "AI PC" era). It covers major developments in robotics, such as Hyundai's industrial integration of Boston Dynamics and new home assistants from Samsung and LG that aim to be helpful rather than just novelties. Furthermore, the discussion touches on the explosion of health tech following new FDA guidance, featuring non-invasive monitoring and smart wellness devices, ultimately painting a picture of a future where technology becomes an invisible, proactive, and helpful layer in daily life. 這集 podcast 針對剛落幕的 CES 2026 進行了深入的趨勢分析，重點在於人工智慧（AI）的重大轉型：從單純的「生成式 AI」（如對話機器人）進化為具備主動執行能力的「代理 AI」（Agentic AI）與「實體 AI」（Physical AI）。節目指出，AI 已不再只是雲端上的軟體，而是成為各種硬體設備的基礎架構（Infrastructure）。透過 Lenovo 的情境感知筆電、Samsung 與 LG 的智慧家電生態系等案例，主持人解釋了 AI 如何從「等待指令」轉變為「預測需求並主動執行」，真正實現跨裝置的無縫協作。 除了軟體代理，節目也探討了 AI 進入實體世界的硬體突破。重點涵蓋了 NVIDIA 與現代汽車（Boston Dynamics）在工業與居家機器人上的進展，以及為了支援這些「邊緣運算」所需的強大晶片（如 NVIDIA RTX 50 系列與各家 NPU）。此外，討論觸及了 FDA 新規範放寬後帶來的健康科技爆發，例如非侵入式血糖監測與智慧馬桶等。整體而言，CES 2026 標誌著科技正從數位的對話框，大步邁向能感知、移動並協助人類處理實體任務的時代。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1236: We're continuing our coverage of CES with headlines on Hyundai's humanoid robot plans and Sony Honda's SUV twist on the Afeela. Plus, a dramatic EV fire at a gas station is stopped cold by some simple, new tech.https://www.autonews.com/technology/an-ces-2026-hyundai-robotics-strategy-0105/Hyundai is jumping headfirst into the humanoid robot race, revealing a bold new plan to deploy thousands of AI-driven robots at its factories, starting with its Georgia Metaplant. The timeline? Hyundai aims to produce 30,000 Atlas humanoid robots per year by 2028.The robots will begin by handling parts-sequencing tasks at the Georgia plant.Developed by Boston Dynamics, Atlas can lift 110 pounds and is built for rugged environments.Hyundai's roadmap includes complex assembly work by 2030, supported by AI from Nvidia and Google DeepMind.“Robotics brings many different domains of machine learning together… That makes robotics a frontier application of AI,” said Carolina Parada of Google DeepMind.https://www.engadget.com/transportation/evs/sony-honda-mobilitys-afeela-prototype-2026-puts-an-suv-spin-on-its-too-familiar-sedan-at-ces-043927882.htmlSony Honda Mobility is back at CES with another Afeela concept — this time, it's an SUV. The new Afeela Prototype 2026 offers familiar styling with a taller twist, signaling the joint venture's attempt to better cater to American preferences.The SUV prototype mimics the Afeela 1 sedan, complete with nose-mounted LCD.Targeted release is “as early as 2028,” though 2029 is more likely.Meanwhile, the Afeela 1 sedan is still set to launch at the end of 2026 — but only in California.Starting at $90K, the sedan offers 300 miles of range and promises future Level 4 autonomy yet only charges at 150 kwh…half of what most Teslas and Hyundai's can do“You could drive in Gran Turismo 7 while your car drove you to work,” Sony Honda Mobility teased.https://www.jalopnik.com/2068144/firefighters-blanket-turtle-ev-fire/In an ironic turn, an EV caught fire at a gas station . Thanks to quick-thinking cops and some seriously clever firefighting tech, it didn't turn into a Hollywood-style explosion. This near-disaster in Minnesota gave emergency responders a chance to flex some new tools built just for EV firesA burning Kia EV6 was parked at a gas pump — yes, a gas pump.First, Police used cruisers to push the smoking EV away from the pump to a safe location.Then, firefighters used a giant fire blanket to control vapors and smoke.Finally, they also deployed the “Turtle” — a shell-shaped water cannon developed by Jersey City Fire Captain Howard "Buddy" Hayes after he discovered the shortcomings of his department's existing equipment in battling EV fires.The Turtle pumps 500 gallons per minute to cool EV battery packs from underneath avoiding ‘thermal runaway' that looks more like those crazy EV fires you've seenJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

After the U.S military's overnight strike on Venezuela and capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, correspondent Scott Pelley reports on the recent events and the criminal charges they face. Pelley interviews former DEA special agent Sandy Gonzalez, who helped lead the investigation that led to Maduro's 2020 indictment, Roger Carstens, who was Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs under the previous Trump and Biden administrations, and U.S. Senator Mark Kelly. For decades, engineers have been trying to create robots that look and move like humans, and now breakthroughs in AI are giving humanoid robots a new ability to acquire skills through learning. At Hyundai's new auto plant near Savannah, Georgia, correspondent Bill Whitaker watches as Boston Dynamics' humanoid, AI-powered robot Atlas learns to perform factory work in a real-world setting for the first time. Very few people retire at age 16, but few people have had careers with as many twists as Alysa Liu. After becoming the youngest U.S. women's figure skating champion at just 13, the phenom shocked the sport by walking away a few years later. Now 20, Liu is back and a favorite to win Olympic gold next month. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi speaks with Liu about coming back on her own terms.
