📌 The humanoid robot “Atlas” has been introduced by Hyundai Motor Company
The well-known Atlas robot, now developed under Hyundai, is currently priced at around $130,000 to $140,000.
However, if mass production begins, the price could potentially drop to about $100,000.
‼️ In that case, its operational cost is estimated to be roughly $5 per hour 👀
For comparison:
The U.S. federal minimum wage is about $7.50 per hour.
In the automotive industry, hourly wages typically range between $20 and $38.
This means that, economically, the robot could become cheaper than human labor.
📉 Some projections suggest that by 2028, between 3 to 4 million assembly jobs could be replaced by robots.
Automation is no longer a futuristic scenario —
it’s already reshaping the labor market in real time.
