Move over, human workers—Xiaomi’s Beijing EV factory has hired the interns from hell: two humanoid robots that don’t unionize, don’t need coffee breaks, and definitely don’t complain about the lighting. These bipedal bots are gingerly screwing on lugnuts at a leisurely 76-second pace, proudly hitting 90.2% efficiency while the company calls them “interns.” Because nothing says “future of work” like robots that move slower than your grandma but never call in sick. China’s already drowning in industrial bots; now they’re adding ones that look like they wandered off a sci-fi set. Next quarter’s headline? “Robots demand better oil changes.”
