A Robot on the Assembly Line: How Hyundai Brought AI into Production
Hyundai has announced that Atlas will go onto the assembly line at its plant in Georgia, with starting tasks centered on sorting parts and kitting blanks. The breakthrough owes less to Boston Dynamics' flashy videos than to Hyundai reworking the robot for real-world operation: it made Atlas electric, built it into the automotive supply chain and fitted its economics to factory KPIs.

Why couldn't Google put the Atlas robot into production?
Google bought Boston Dynamics in 2013 but could not find a practical use for it. The company had no clear scenario for turning Atlas into an industrial product, even though it was actively buying up robotics assets.
