What people ask about China

Who is collecting robot training data in China?

The largest open real robot dataset is Chinese, over a million trajectories, and licensed for non commercial use only; Shanghai's Zhangjiang humanoid training ground opened its first phase with over 100 heterogeneous robots; Beijing's Shijingshan humanoid data training center reports close to 270 robots producing about 20 million data items a year; Beijing's humanoid robot innovation center runs a data and training base with over 120 robots in more than 30 scenes; The hours gap: a CAICT report puts the need on the order of ten million hours and the world's usable supply at under a million; China has over 70 embodied AI training grounds in use, per a CAICT report the ledger could only reach through state media. Each has its own record page with the figures its own publisher printed and the date they were true.

What rules decide what a robot maker may do with hours recorded in China?

Hours recorded in China leave the country under the 2024 cross border provisions and the 2025 network data regulations. Each record quotes the provision and says what it changes for somebody collecting or buying hours.

What has nobody settled in China?

Open question: are a training ground's recordings important data under Chinese law? No catalog names robot data. The ledger poses these and does not answer them.
