AI i.e. Artificial Intelligence is rapidly spreading its foot in the world. It is gradually making the everyday life of human beings easier. China has achieved another feat in this field. China has launched its first humanoid passenger service AI robot. This robot has been deployed at the railway station. It has been developed by Xi’an Bureau Group of Chinese Railways. It has now been officially put into operation at Xi’an Railway Station. It will provide many types of facilities to the passengers traveling to and from the station.

China has launched its first humanoid passenger service AI robot. It is 1.5 meters long. Its name is Xiaotie. It looks like a railway passenger attendant (via)comes. Short hair, big eyes and railway uniform. He rides on a balance bike and keeps roaming here and there at the station. Xiaotie provides consultation, guidance and navigation services to travelers, making it a helpful companion for travelers.

The robot has been deployed at the railway station from 8 am to 8 pm.

In future, there is a plan to install it at checking gates also so that it can also perform tasks like ticket checking of passengers.

The launch of AI robots like Xiaotie shows that China is making rapid progress in artificial intelligence. Xiaotie is currently the only humanoid robot providing passenger service within the railway system. But this indicates a major revolution in technology. In the coming times, more AI robots like Xiaotie can be seen in the travel segment which can make the future more smart and convenient.
