How Robots Can Assist - Not Replace - Humans In Factories

- On average there are 84 robots for every factory 10,000 workers, according to the International Federation of Robotics. For years, robots have had a bad reputation for stealing workers' jobs. The rise of robots in factories has also increased the possibility of injury. Traditionally, robots needed to operate in separate spaces from humans.
Collaborative robots, or cobots, have been working with humans on the factory floor for years, but when it comes to the large-scale industrial robots that can lift and move massive pieces of manufacturing, the danger to human workers is so great that the robots are bolted down to the factory floor behind fences so a human never comes near them.
Veo Robotics recently rolled out its new sensor technology, which gives robots spatial awareness of every object and obstacle in their reach.

How Robots Can Assist - Not Replace - Humans In Factories
How robots can assist - not replace - humans in the factory (but eventually replace when you are used to them)
Pretty much that's what they've done to the Maccas at my town. They slowly brought in self serves kiosks. And now they've fired all the cashiers and replaced them with kiosks
@@Kage-jk4pj How is that bad? Should humans stop technological progress? Or should companies be forced by government to employ people although it's 5x more efficient to use machines/robots? Which one is it?
Mārtiņš Staris Then there has to be another way to get capital in peoples hands that is not a job. What’s the point of kiosks if people don’t have money to use it?
@@Hawah15 People will be managing these machines out of which they will have capital to buy stuff via these machines. This is one example but you will always need to maintain, create and develop machines. Also intelectual work won't dissapear any soon but it's as clear as day that simple jobs will be a past in 15 or so years and people will need to adapt.
In the end it's about money. Robots can do work 24 hours with no labor rights. Humans will exist in factories still. But it'll be a slow replacement
Robots will also help the worker out the door.
More like: Humans as Robot coworkers
@xmr7 pt95 Yes it is. But I am not the coworker of my microwave! ;)
In Italy before robot one machine five workers,now with robots five machines one worker .
luca liberati so you think that is it good or no?
@@anthonybenalcazar4224 I don't think about it,there are good and bad things that needs lead better .
Most workers get paid more because of it (at least the ones who keep the job).
@@xavdest5481 Yeah we (in Italy) got around 40% of young unemployment (under 30 I think) and around 12% of general unemployment...Mostly uneducated people obviously...
@@zampy15021993 to be fair on the Italy point, there are many things contributing to the garbage economy
Ya because companies totally wanna pay for robots & humans at the same time.
Automation will win at the end of the day
Unless they can make it so humans & robots are more productive than just a machine and cost the same or less, automation will be the future as you're suggesting
In the very least they will reduce the humans
People are dying to work in factories
Amazon is working with both humans and bots. Bots scoot the crap from point a to point b, and humans sort the crap.
It's a double edged sword for corporations. When people are unemployed, demand goes down therefore profits for companies hurt them. Point being they invest millions on automation , yet they lose millions in profits are the same time.
we don't want faster product cycles, we want our stuff to last a long time. If products break down faster it's creates more trash.
Facts. Immortal products. Free us from the chains of consumerism
Can't wait till the people who made this video lose their jobs to automation, then complain about it.
Firing 5+ employees so you only need one and calling it "collaborative" is manipulative.
um not really
because more jobs have been created by robots + more manufacturing power
that's a huge myth perpetrated by tech companies
@@smmm5559 only problem is that the people who lost those jobs initially have trouble finding those new jobs
@@RafeedU yeah that's right
but all economic polls says ai has created more jobs
but yes we need to help ppl who will lose their jobs
@@smmm5559 well, it may very well work out that the factory workers of the future will be coders. Coding will probably become ubiquitous that it becomes almost valueless.
I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords!
We will always need humans to service the robots 🤖
Just you'll need less and less people to do so. Up until you can make machines that can fix each other
@@Kage-jk4pj but who will fix the other robot maintaining the robot?
One of the other maintenance robots. “But who heals a Doctor when the doctor is sick?!... another doctor”
@@TheOtherOne122 you ever realise how insane it sounds?
It won't be a one to one ratio of robots it'd more like the ratio of store registers to engineers which is one company with ~50 engineers servicing around 70 stores
Just because a human is working with a robot doesn’t mean you’re not replacing people. If a person can do more collaborating with a robot, then you, or the industry, need less employees.
Fluff piece to win favor of our eventual robot overlords.
This technology actually has long term benefits. They will not beat full automation when it comes to general goods, but luxury goods can now be "handcrafted" by artist or designers. Trust me, this will become a big market for the upper class, and that's big money.
Hey, no worries, it's only 1 in 10 ... NOW, but in 10 or 15 years? Capitalists DO NOT want you to consider the exponential trend line!
Can I just say that you, CNBC, create some seriously awesome videos. I'm a new subscriber going through old videos. 😍😊
Robots that can detect people have been around since the 90's but they tell you its a new thing
"hey guys, we found a way to reduce the efficiency of robot factory workers by putting humans in their way."
What’s the point of having robots build things if unemployed people have no money to buy them?
Make laws that portions of what robots make being given away?😅😅😅
Workers:"how to assist us in doing works with robots!"
Greedy corporations:"how to replace workers with robot for more profit!"
Greed? Its called smart move. Robot doesnt get pregnant or need vacation and all those dramas
They either need to make the worker so much more productive as to justify the price, or replace workers. Those are the two options
" People Are Amazing "
Good Concept but never gone Reality.robot will definitely replace human workers eventually
Does anyone ever wonder if this is just an ad by msnbc for companies that want to change the perceptions surrounding automation?
Don't wonder. It is.
Clara is Amazing! Go, Girl!
More room for the arts, travel, study, research and generally enjoying life more, no more 80 hour weeks! Paying people a good living income is a must to make it work...
It's not a matter of a good job paying a living income, but a job market that is none existent for unskilled labor, and that workforce is huge who won't be able to find another job unless they pursue a STEM program because according to the FBI a little less than 50% of the jobs in America are subject to be affected by automation. The great depressions highest peak of unemployment never surpassed 25%. this is going to be much more monumental than that and this report is seriously downplaying it.
This should have been the case by now not something to look forward to. Instead its just more income for big capital and the boot for low skilled labour.
@@hellfire6714 That's why there must be a demand for a decent living income in that they should be paid whether they are working or not. There would be riots in the streets if this is not the case.
@@artakbars and anti-riot swat robots can be dealt with by computer geek anarchists. 😉
Shakir Akbars gonna need a lot of robots for 70 million people with nothing but free time on they hands.
Yes, you're right. Robot assisted human will replace human assisted human. Still massive labor change
A company is not gonna spend millions on a robot unless their able to justify it. They would most definitely cut the workforce if the robot increased efficiency by 30% consistently. They would only need people to fix the machine and maintain the machine. The only jobs in this world you can have an unlimited amount of, as long as you can come up with a creative title is the desk positions of factories.
It's the future and it's going to happen this is why education is so important. Right now 50% of Americans have skills beyond high school this needs to be higher we need to match the world leader which is Canada with 60% of its workforce having a skill beyond high school.
Kinect finally takes a W
I hope these machine/human systems can be more efficient in many tasks than machine alone
The kid at 5:56 looks like a mini Pharrel Williams
Anybody going to consider that this will earn more money for these companies, increasing their profit, and allowing them to expand and create more jobs anyway. They really aren't taking jobs away.
The fear of these robots replacing jobs only comes from people who have never been in a factory.
This is just marketing. The fact is that if a robot does any work whatsoever that is work formerly done by a person that will be no longer required to be done by the person ie it is replacing humans. If we are to deal with issues of unemployment we need to stop lying about it and face the facts. If robots are cheaper then the people must be given new skills, or something like a universal basic income or we must change the economic system or we must accept that some people will always be poor. But the first step to choosing the best solution is honesty.
At least near term robots can't replace jobs without routine
Skynet is born. Better train up the rebel fighters now before Skynet becomes self aware!
I try to buy things made by usa in future i will try to buy things made by humans
I don't understand what issue do people have with the robotic advancement? Yes, some jobs will disappear, others will appear. 15 years ago no one knew you could be social media content manager, instagram model, SEO expert, machine learning engineer etc. With this logic we should stop all human scientific and technological progress so that some people can work as a cashiers or factory workers till death gets them. Sounds great :)
Yes we should stop all progress and figure out what the hell we're doing with it, how it can help people not capital and get the tech lobbies in check
Not replace... of course they'll replace humans... just not all humans of course. :D
Robot tax ->jobs delocalization it will be more costly to operate in the USA than oversea
In this context the tech company will be more predominant
Those tech companies would still have business they wouldn't abandon in the united states....... what company would abandon the largest market in the world because they get taxed on taking away jobs and replacing it with their technology that doesn't need healthcare or pensions... They would become ultra rich...
Skeeters Produce you don’t understand the majority of the Tech like Facebook ,Microsoft ,google,companies run platforms and don’t have robot,
This will decrease the rentability of any company who don’t make money with computer programs or the internet,consequently their will be for more attractive for investors.
If this is the case the job will go to Mexico (with the new NAFTA or the WTO rules) it will be fare more profitable to produces in Mexico who already have less regulations, lowers wages, and possibly more friendly taxes.
The numbers of twin cities will explodes .....
THE MOST IMPORTANT FOR ANY ECONOMIC IS INNOVATION,IMAGINE FORD HAD A DECREASE IN CARS SALES ,MAKING THEM LOSES MONEY BECAUSE ROBOT TAXES, YOU CANNOT PREDICT ACCURATELY 100% every time DEMANDS/REVENUE.
WE ALREADY HAVE A :
-Sales taxes
-corporates taxes
-income tax
-capitale gains taxes
IT WILL VERY DIFFICULT FOR STARTUP IN THE USA TO RISE BECAUSE EVERY EQUIPMENT COULD BECOME A LIABILITY IN A ECONOMIC DOWNTURNS
@@evaristegalois8600 I do understand that, I haven't been living under a rock all my life. That's why they need to be taxed on their use of OUR DATA. They make billions and don't get taxed on the ad revenue we provide them and OUR data they use to sell off to other industries. They need to be taxed heavily considering they paid ZERO in taxes this year.
@@evaristegalois8600 You think Mcdonalds is going to move its entire operation to Spain because of paying tax on their 'robots' when they don't have to pay payroll, healthcare, insurance, pension, 401ks, and the entire lot if they choose to automate that job?
You just citied that we have corporate taxes, income taxes, and capital gains taxes but i really don't believe you know what that actually means. I work in accounting and had worked in tax, and those taxes are absolutely necessary and that is almost universal across the world. The capital gains tax is low as of 2017, corporate tax is 21%, is already pretty low, lower then the marginal rate for a lot of individual tax payers. Taxing them isn't going to scare business away, theres to much money to be made in America for that to ever happen and what you hear is fear mongering and propaganda backed by large corporations.
Skeeters Produce
No at all , for me all the companies who uses robots for services will maintain their equipments in the USA ,
all the robots used for manufacturing goods will be moves away the country if(of course this not will be the case for every industry) they can reduces cost by doing it.
Personally I’m absolutely not against capital gains tax at this present rates (it incentivizes investment).
If I was a legislator I will increase by 7% the capital gains taxes of the companies who practices stocks buy back.
Suppose you own all the stocks of a company before trump ,the government will taxes 35% of the profits before taxing 21% of capital gains.
I am not against a taxes reform but I think it is important to improves the debt/GDP ratios ,for me the universal basic income is not a solution ( the mains argument of taxing the robot and IA is they will be jobs who cannot be replaced) It is for more important for me to fight planned obsolescence.I ‘am not a fan of big government but I consider he have an important role to plays.
The main reason for me to consider that a heavy taxation of robots could be negative in the long term is the demographic evolution of the USA population with the baby boomers who will leave the work force and the social security who will probably be bankrupt in the next 15 years...
All regard fiscal policies I assumes you should know far more than me all regards your profession I only assumes that heavy taxation and big subventions is not the solution for everything, I will sites Puerto Rico for example
Even if they can't replace 100% of the workers, if they replace 50% that's still bad for the economy.
ScamallDorcha dangerous overall
I disagree it helps because with robots do all our laber more sports will be available
greek vampy a lot of the population doesn’t play sports and the world won’t just turn to utopia where you are paid to do nothing a lot of people have to uprise first and there will be a revolution.
When your on your dads lap pretending to “drive”
Yes!! We need a taco-robo😁
This report was brought by Capitalism.
I want socialism.
I want to get paid for not working.
Give me my handouts u greedy millionaires
jasin biggs 😂
"why everything gotta cost money"
1N73RC3P7OR cause these billionaires would be nobodies without it. So they invented money.
I understand if Facebook mark wants money cause hes kind of young. But why does billionaire charlie munger still making more money. Hes hairless, ugly and almost 100. He should be giving the money to me.
Im tired of being broke
I think no matter what, humans will always be needed to supervise and maintain machines.
Until robots fix robots and u will only need to supervise, then AI will watch them and factories will be like in "Satisfactory game" input given, it outputs, u dont go in
@@ElAdri1999 ..... yea we can let my geat grandchildren worry about that. Sounds like alot of math.
A wise old man taught me that machines were invented to help people, as we work at our own pace; we were not made to keep up with machines at their pace.
this is a scary road that makes work miserable, having an employer time out the actions of a robot/machine, in order to rush all the employees at unsafe, repetitive motion injury levels
we need a future that puts people first, not machines or cash for the 1%
Can someone explain what is wrong with a robot "stealing" a job?
Nothing, as long as we don't then lie about the what happens after. If/when we figure out some kinds of basic income systems or whatever, it'll be fine. Now just seems politicians etc. are deluding themselves thinking millions of truckers for example will just find new jobs.
the whole point of robots in a factory is to replace humans and therefore cut costs.
It's happening now. The new vw t-roc is completely welded by robots
Must be great colleagues. No whining while you sleep on the job, gets you coffee without complaining, and takes your shift when you're hungover
@Ralph Northam Awsome
It's crazy to add more tax burdens on robot tech companies. Who actually wants to do these tedious tasks anyways? What if we had never moved on from weaving clothes by hand and adding machines to replace the job? We wouldn't have time/ opportunities to do better things with our time. I think it's ludicrous this proposition of wanting to slow down robot technology. We all need to adapt and improve on what we can do, otherwise we'll never grow in society. In my opinion we should lower taxes on robot tech companies to push the advancement of technology
The info in this video could have been conveyed in less than 2 minutes.
Yes, will happen. Even union organizers are shifting their tactics to finding a way to represent the robots !
Beep beep robot welfare beep beep more lubricant less job beep beep 😂😂😂😂
Pay for 1 Robot
Pay for 1 Robot & 1 Human
What will a profit seeking company choose?
Robot tax is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Robots need to be researched, invented, built and maintained, which are already taxed services. Robots don't just magically appear and do the job endlessly.
Why do I sense that JARVIS is not far around .
A great A.I. (artificial intelligence) could replace upper management in factories very easily and a lot sooner. A.I. 's would run a company much better and with little to no corruption or chance of embezzlement or fraud activities, plus A.I. could analyze paths to take faster and with better success of outcome, after a path was chosen. A.I.'s could cost companies less and make the owners more and could keep employee moral high and could make higher wages possible due to the A.I's lower cost to run and update.
Yes robots CAN assist, but will they? It’s like when companies say we CAN keep jobs in the USA but we DONT WANT TO
More like mass layoff because the more productive a single worker is, the less likely they would need more workers.
Isnt it cheaper to either be labour-intensive or capital-intensive rather than use both together? Why would corporations opt for this alternative?
Robots never organize a union and go on a strike.
Wait till A.I takes over...robots might have a different opinion.
It’s a crime that we have to stifle innovation to protect meaninglessness jobs.
The entire mail industry is inflated filled with one-task jobs, we still sort and load packages by hand
When you ask business - taxes are never helpful for anything
Why to disturb robots while they are working, it will sloe down the production line....
So that’s what happened to all the Xbox Kinect Cameras.
don't robots attacking human co worker in factory know which human knows engineering computers and which human is just labour?
Android phones and iPhones have replaced 0 million workers. Technology creates jobs.
YET!
This china kuka company are very smart create many talented people for china
Wait till robots take over lol 😂 or the terminator !!
What purpose will people have?
Make Robos great again.
well, it may very well work out that the factory workers of the future will be coders. Coding will probably become ubiquitous that it becomes almost valueless.
money !
That's what they all say....
I love the message of this
"Do not worry, you will still have the ability to give up large parts of your day to labor for someone else in return for a fraction of the value of that labor you produced."
I'm glad I can look forward to 8-12 hours of my day spent doing something I don't wanna do to not die. : )
Chill out
at least they found a use for microsofts kenect junk
Robot is good, complet.
mmmm finially cage free robots.
Hanzhen harmonic drive gear ,
over 30 years experience , robot gear reducer
The ROI of your business may suffer if your operation relies on too many robots and it will not work if you don't have the revenue to keep them up.
Also, robots may have AI but they are certainly not as intelligent as humans.
Automation bro!
But I hate my colleagues
yes they can assist but they will replace. companies ultimate goal is profit margin. sorry
so if robot cut finger his coworker human, who's to blame?
... naw dude robot and A.I will replace people in a lot of jobs.
Ummm YangGang2020
not sure who is assisting whom😈 it's all about point of view
Call it what it is....human's desire to have slaves.
my tamil mam showed this
"If you're listening to this, you are the Resistance. No machine can replace man, women, or child. We must stand United and fight for our existence. To live is to survive to survive is to fight. If your listening to this YOU are the Resistance".
- John Connor ✊
THEY HAVE BEEN REPLACING HUMANS FOR YEARS NOW, AND JUST BECAUSE RIGHT NOW THERE ARE STILL SOME HUMANS, JUST LOOK AT THE AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY. TERRIBLE VIDEO GIVING PEOPLE FALSE HOPE. IF YOU HAVE A JOB IN A FACTORY, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO IN A DECADE.
What if humans and robots fall in love?
1st
Kuka made in germany
people are trash 🗑
we replaced cashiers with cash machines in our fast food business and all the employees were “complaining” that the machines were faulty and bla bla
and guess what the restaurants that where loosing around 7000k a month started to profit 10000k a month after we placed the cash machine.
Sorry to burst your bubble BUT JAPAN HAS BEATEN YOU AMERICANS IN THIS GAME ALREADY IN 1980! During the year 1980, a group of Japanese and American industrialists collaborated how to use these new emerging technologies such as full computers, full robotization, full automation, upgradable and changeable multi-product assembly line systems. The Japanese wanted to automate around their human workforce to ACHIEVE LABOR FLEXIBILITY for humans are the only ones who can deal with the unexpected. While their American counterparts wants to remove the human workforce element. Then after the meeting the Japanese did their thing and ACHIEVE STUPENDOUS RESULTS. The Americans went to so much unnecessary troubles and expense that they themselves have to admit that the Japanese were right all along but many of their fellow Americans refuses to admit it and still, even to this day, achieve only partial success and forced to use the Japanese advice. Even with multiple-omni-directional gripper hands and wrists and with multiple-omni-directional 3-dimensional IF eye sensors and advance processors can make an orderly work from a highly disordered work place and even pick at ramdom a piece of component from a bin containing a mixture of different kinds of components all mixed up together and yet unerringly look, search, locate, and pick that particular piece of component. They still need humans to make sure that they do the right thing JUST IN CASE OF A COMPUTER GLITCH which is what the Japanese are still doing up to this day. BUT THE JAPANESE RE-IVEST HEAVILY INTO THEIR WORKFORCE WHICH IS WHY THEY HAVE AN INTENSIVE AND EXTENSIVE UP-TRAINING AND SCHOOLING PROGRAM EVERY YEAR WHICH IS DONE ON ROTATION WHICH IS WHY THERE ARE 3 TO 4 JAPANESE WORKERS DOING THE SAME JOB TO COUNTER-CHECK/INSPECT EACH OTHER'S PERFORMANCE based on the principle "United We Stand, Divided We Fall".
What a load of nonsense.
