Xinhuanet reports that future iPads and iPhones might just be built by robots, that is if manufacturing giant Foxconn goes ahead with plans to replace workers with up to 1 million mechs:
[Foxconn] currently has 10,000 robots and the number will be increased to 300,000 next year and 1 million in three years, according to [Foxconn founder and chairman, Terry Gou].
Gou announced the robotics initiative during a company dance party, which presumably they’ll have less of in the future. Unless, of course, they’re replacing workers with dancing robots.
