At the 139th Canton Fair in Guangzhou, Reanne and Ben dive into a world where AI isn't just a buzzword—it's built into robots, wheelchairs, and even suitcases. This year's fair feels more organized and commercially focused than last year, with robots actually performing jobs rather than just dancing. They explore desktop humanoid robots, a $40 emotional companion bot called Lily, a bionic hand controlled by finger movements, and an exoskeleton that supports walking—all available for purchase. The highlight is Ben trying the exoskeleton, describing it as 'like someone helping you walk.' They notice AI has gone mainstream, with self-service machines now common in hospitals and lift banks. The couple marvels at China's robot workforce of 2 million—the largest in the world. The episode captures the speed of China's tech evolution and the growing role of AI in everyday life.
At the 139th Canton Fair in Guangzhou, Reanne and Ben discover a future that feels already here—where AI-powered humanoids, companion robots, and exoskeletons are not prototypes but products for sale. From a $40 emotional companion bot to a $800 exoskeleton that makes you feel like someone is lifting your legs, this fair showcases how China is turning sci-fi into reality. What surprises most isn't the tech itself, but how quickly it's moving from factory floors into everyday life.
At the Canton Fair in Guangzhou, Reanne and Ben explore AI robots, exoskeletons, and tech that makes China feel like it's living in 2035.
