The humanoid robotics market/economy will be roughly $50 trillion—roughly half of global GDP of human labor.

The humanoid robotics market/economy will be roughly $50 trillion—roughly half of global GDP of human labor. | Listen, this is like going to be the largest economy in the world. It's like half a G roughly a little under half a GDP of human labor. $50 trillion. Yeah. This is like the next great place to be.

Watch events: Figure 03 shipment volume; BMW, 2nd customer deployment count; BLS employment reports; tech layoff trackers; Underemployment rate; Yang quarterly updates

Listen, this is like going to be the largest economy in the world. It's like half a G roughly a little under half a GDP of human labor. $50 trillion. Yeah. This is like the next great place to be.

$50T humanoid market is long-term thesis. No timeline given.
