Wang Xingxing at World Physical AI Conference: Physical AI shows signs of being 'broken through,' core challenge is model-robot alignment

In his keynote at the 2026 World Physical AI Conference, Unitree founder Wang Xingxing said that with the release of GPT-6, physical AI has shown signs of being broken through, and a breakthrough could come within the next 1 to 2 years or 2 to 3 years. He believes the core challenge for embodied intelligence to pass the ChatGPT moment is aligning AI model inputs and outputs with real robots, and judges that commercial service scenarios will be deployed faster than home and industrial ones. According to the on-site introduction, the G1 robot released in May 2024 has cumulatively produced about 10,000 to 20,000 units.
