Laborers and Movers
Community forecast of employment change versus 2025, across 2027, 2030, and 2035.
Curated insights
Humanoid robots remain experimental rather than production-ready assets due to high energy use, limited speed, high costs and immature perception and dexterity. However, potential for automation is almost unlimited, once the technology is mature enough.

Even beyond the pure capabilities side, there is also a production aspect to this question. If you want to make 7M jobs disappear, you need a lot of robots.

This category is a primary target for automation for the humanoid robotics companies, and I expect real-world impacts in the near term. It appears to be nearly inevitable at this point that multiple robotics companies will be selling competent general-purpose warehouse workers before 2030.
