0:00 Speaker A: Okay, so here's my top 10 to experience the future of tech in China. Speaker A: Let's go. Speaker A: My number one was visiting the Xiaomi Hyper factory, seeing the machines, making the machines in the future of automated manufacturing. Speaker A: It was absolutely insane to see it live. Speaker A: It's 91% automated every 71 seconds per car. Speaker A: There's more than 800 robots and only 100 employees. Speaker A: They have the world's strongest hyperpress at 9100 tons of pressure. Speaker A: For example, the Cybertruck one is 9000 tons. Speaker A: The cars coming out of this factory became number one best selling car in China, overtaking Tesla Model Y.

0:27 Speaker A: This is the only place where R and D and raw materials go in on one end and out comes a car the other end that's delivered on the same premises. Speaker A: They're now making up to 50,000 cars a month, which is getting to a Tesla level of production output. Speaker B: Number two was visiting the world's first robot store 6s where they were demoing and selling the robots from humanoids, robot dogs and all kinds of educational toys. Speaker B: I tried the hypershell exoskeleton. Speaker B: That was pretty interesting and it totally worked. Speaker B: By making it much easier to run and walk by pulling your legs forward.

0:52 Speaker B: I got a massage from a robot. Speaker B: I also got a coffee from a robo barista where you can choose exactly what kind of latte art you wanted to make. Speaker B: It had two arms for espresso and pouring the milk. Speaker B: I then played around with humanoid boxing game using my mind to raise spider robots and experienced the future of war with unitree robot dog shooting game. Speaker B: Of course there were also humanoids dancing and playing pianos. Speaker B: In addition, there was a future technology store focused on AI where they showcased a lot of AI devices from medical analysis to selling dedicated open claw machines and training people to set it up.

1:23 Speaker B: While I did visit and Also like the Inno 100 showcase, I feel like the success store was much more impactful. Speaker A: Number three was visiting the brand new science and technology museum in Shenzhen. Speaker A: It was highly immersive experience to learn about the history of compute AI, how the machine learning models are developed, how the chips are built, UV lithography and so on. Speaker A: 80% Of it was interactive. Speaker A: So there are some fun bars to see a robot draw. Speaker A: You can race robots for air hockey, you can solve Rubik's Cube or do whack a mole against the robots.

1:48 Speaker A: And in general, great to see an optimistic take on the future of technology. Speaker A: Number four is drone delivery or just seeing drones fly around in the city. Speaker A: In addition to daily deliveries like food and drinks being delivered in 15 to 20 minutes. Speaker A: Number five was experiencing self driving cars from companies like Xiaomi, Xpeng and Huawei and trying out the robotaxi experience from companies like Pony Ride. Speaker A: These experiences are almost at the level of Waymo and Tesla in the west, in addition to bringing the ultra luxury experience in cars to next level. Speaker A: But I also made a specific video just about cars so you can check it out.

2:15 Speaker A: Number six is interacting with robots who are delivering and making things. Speaker A: For example, the little delivery robots in hotel lobbies and buildings delivering food and drinks to your door as well as robots making food and drinks in cafes. Speaker A: Number seven was experiencing Chinese smartphones where the camera sensors are the size of a pocket camera and batteries are about 50% larger and last longer than iPhones and Samsung phones. Speaker A: Number eight was visiting the tech flagship stores in Shenzhen and Beijing. Speaker A: Dji, Huawei, Xiaomi and Bambu Lab flagships are interactive experiences that show you the future of tech.

2:42 Speaker A: Everything from cars to phones to home all in the same space. Speaker A: And number nine were those levitating plates at an Orbit 1 restaurant with magnetic levitation, the plates are automatically moving from kitchen to tables. Speaker A: And number 10 is to live an everyday life that looks and feels like the future. Speaker A: And you can check out my video on the everyday life in China for more.
