12月7日，"和讯财经中国2025年会"在北京举行，主题为"寻找中国经济破局之路"。中国社会科学院学 部委员，中国社会科学院前副院长蔡昉在演讲中谈到，AI对就业的影响在中国还没有充分体现出来， 但是，很快就会有影响了。"如果处理不当的话，可能会导致劳动力市场两极分化。" 蔡昉表示，人工智能，特别是在大语言模型出现以后，它对就业市场已经产生了影响。它不是一个单方 面的影响，既不能说它是有利于就业的，也不能简单说它就一定是破坏就业的。那么这和技术的性质有 关，任何颠覆性技术都是"双刃剑"。 对于如何应对人工智能的就业挑战，蔡昉提到，有"三驾马车"来应对它： 第一，在事先。也就是在人工智能技术进入到经济活动、劳动力进入到劳动力市场之前，要事先把两者 之间关系处理好。这在人工智能行业叫"对齐"，叫"看齐"，用中国的词叫"对标"。他强调，人工智能的 发展要对标就业优先发展。 第二，在事中。就是在人工智能与人的劳动力都进入劳动力市场时，要实现最好的匹配，最好的人机协 作，其核心在于人力资本的培养。 第三，在事后。不管做了什么，没有所谓的"涓滴效应"，最后形成的结果可能还会有弊端，不好的结 果，两极分化的结果，那一定要有一 ...

Core Insights - Morgan Stanley's survey reveals a strong interest among Chinese enterprises in deploying humanoid robots, with 62% planning to implement them within three years, indicating significant market potential. However, only 23% of respondents are satisfied with current products, highlighting a critical need for improvements in flexibility, functionality, and pricing [1][4][14]. Deployment Plans - Among 86 surveyed companies, 62% are categorized as "potential adopters," with plans to initiate humanoid robot pilot projects or major deployments within three years. Specifically, 12% plan to invest in 2025, 29% in 2026, and 21% in 2027 [4][3]. - The adoption rate for composite robots (mobile base + robotic arm) is expected to be the fastest, with 21% of companies planning deployment by 2025, increasing to 64% by 2027. In contrast, wheeled humanoid robots will see deployment rates of 8% in 2025, 37% in 2026, and 58% in 2027, while bipedal robots will have rates of 6%, 17%, and 41% respectively [3][7][9]. Product Maturity and Satisfaction - Despite strong market demand, product maturity is a significant constraint on the large-scale application of humanoid robots. Only 23% of respondents express satisfaction with current products, while 53% are neutral and 25% dissatisfied [14][16]. - Satisfaction levels vary by industry, with manufacturing firms showing relatively higher satisfaction compared to industrial and service sectors, which exhibit net dissatisfaction [16]. Performance Expectations - Among potential adopters, only 42%-57% rated various performance indicators as "excellent/good," indicating substantial room for improvement. The most anticipated enhancements include human-robot collaboration (70%), IoT integration (57%), fine manipulation (57%), and self-learning capabilities (49%) [18][24]. - Cost remains a critical barrier, with 92% of respondents believing that the price of humanoid robots must drop below 200,000 RMB (approximately 28,000 USD) for widespread adoption, and 40% identifying the ideal price range as 100,000-200,000 RMB [18]. Market Landscape - Chinese brands dominate the market, with Yushutech being the most engaged integrator, having contact with 60% of potential adopters, followed by Yundongchu (28%), UBTECH (23%), and Midea (17%) [20][22]. - The current brand preferences reflect visibility and media exposure rather than actual performance, as evidenced by Yushutech's high visibility despite lacking manufacturing capabilities [25]. Investment Recommendations - Morgan Stanley maintains a positive long-term outlook for humanoid robots but emphasizes that the market is still in its early stages, with scaling requiring time. The firm suggests prioritizing investments in component suppliers, as these companies are expected to benefit earlier from industry growth [27]. - The anticipated drivers for market interest in 2026 include new product launches by tech giants like Tesla, expanded government subsidies, and IPOs of related companies [27].
