A New Phase in the Expansion of Industrial Robots

As we enter a new world, it becomes increasingly difficult to keep up with the speed of technological transformation. The fact that Chinese robot manufacturer UBTECH is preparing to send 1,000 robots this year to work in major factories such as BYD, VW, and Foxconn clearly illustrates the scale of this shift. The company has already secured orders worth 112 million USD, proving that the future of industrial automation is no longer a prediction but a current reality. The fact that some companies in Türkiye will also begin testing this year shows that this wave has already reached the country’s borders. All these developments reveal how rapidly robotic technologies are spreading.

Looking at this landscape, most political debates at the national and global level suddenly lose their meaning. The topics discussed, the volume of the debates, and their direction become increasingly superficial compared to the magnitude of technological change. Yet we are transitioning into another era, and the vast majority of the public, politicians, bureaucrats, academics, and intellectuals are not even aware of this. What is coming is arriving much faster than anticipated, and recognizing this fact is no longer a choice but a necessity for understanding the future.
