Global AI robots market to reach $21.4bn by 2026
According to the Global AI Robots Report from ReportLinker, strong growth is anticipated for the market for AI in robotics over the coming years as industries recognise the powerful combination of the two technologies which offer several benefits in the automation of processes and tasks.
The technology provides robots with the learning ability critical for applications so companies can considerably increase productivity, save time and make the workplace safer for humans. Tasks can also be performed with extreme precision and at great speeds. When integrated with AI, such robots learn processes and then perform tasks on their own, without human intervention. This would be one of the major growth drivers for AI in robotics going forward.
