Silicon Valley AI Institute Founder Praises Mojia Robots: AI is Empowering Industries and Enhancing Everyday Life

During his participation in the “New AI Dialogues” Forum at the 2026 Moganshan World Brand Conference, Piero Scaruffi, Founder of the Silicon Valley Artificial Intelligence Research Institute and author of A History of Silicon Valley, interacted with Mojia robots developed by Chery. From the humanoid robot Mornine to the intelligent police robot, the event showcased the rapid evolution of embodied AI in China, as it moves beyond technology demonstrations into real-world applications

AI Expands Beyond Screens into the Real World

In recent years, embodied AI has emerged as one of the most closely watched trends in the global artificial intelligence industry. As advanced technologies such as AI, high-tech manufacturing, and future industries continue to evolve, the sector is accelerating its transition from digital environments to practical applications that directly impact people’s lives and communities

During the conference, the humanoid robot Mornine welcomed Piero Scaruffi with a handshake, demonstrating its advanced capabilities in natural language communication, motion coordination, and proactive human interaction. Meanwhile, the intelligent police robot showcased real-world traffic management functions and interactive engagement with attendees, attracting significant attention from guests and visitors alike

Scaruffi expressed optimism about the future convergence of artificial intelligence and embodied intelligence, emphasizing that the true value of AI lies in its ability to operate in real-world environments and continuously engage with the physical world, rather than remaining confined to traditional digital applications

This vision aligns closely with Mojia’s development strategy, which focuses on deploying robots in practical applications that serve society, including urban management, public services, commercial reception, and other critical sectors

Why Are Mojia Robots Drawing So Much    Attention

As the only humanoid robotics brand invited to participate in the Moganshan World Brand Conference, Mojia’s presence reflects a new stage in the development of China’s embodied AI industry

While many robotics products worldwide remain largely confined to laboratories and demonstration environments, Mojia has adopted a clear development philosophy centered on “scenario-driven technological advancement,” where products are developed based on genuine user and societal needs rather than solely showcasing technological capabilities

Leveraging more than two decades of Chery’s technological expertise in intelligent vehicles, Mojia robots integrate intelligent driving technologies, perception and decision-making systems, motion control, and advanced engineering and manufacturing capabilities to create an embodied intelligence ecosystem built on a shared technological foundation between vehicles and robots, driven by real-world applications

Mojia’s product portfolio currently includes the intelligent police robot, the humanoid robot Mornine, the quadruped robotic dog Argos, and a range of additional robotic solutions deployed across more than 100 application scenarios, including urban governance, public services, commercial reception, exhibition guidance, and event security

From Technology Demonstrations to Real-World Performance

Industry leaders in embodied AI believe that true competitiveness is measured not only by technological sophistication but by the ability to deliver tangible, measurable value in real-world environments

At the 2026 Global Launch Event for Mojia Robots, the company announced the delivery of 110 intelligent police robots and signed agreements for an additional 1,000 units, marking a significant step toward large-scale commercial deployment

Today, intelligent police robots are operating in several Chinese cities, including Wuhu and Changzhou, where they support practical tasks such as traffic management, public guidance, and school safety. Meanwhile, the humanoid robot Mornine has operated in various environments, including automotive dealerships, government service centers, and major commercial exhibition halls, performing reception, presentation, and visitor guidance

Commenting on the company’s philosophy, Zhang Guibing, General Manager of Mojia Robotics, stated, “Mojia is not a company focused on technology showcases. Every product we launch must have real-world application scenarios and address genuine societal needs

He added that a robot’s success should be measured by its ability to create sustainable, long-term value across different operating environments, which remains the driving force behind the company’s continuous innovation strategy

Chinese Robotics Accelerates Its Global Expansion

As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated with advanced manufacturing, Chinese robotics companies are accelerating their expansion into international markets

Supported by Chery’s global business network, Mojia robots are now deployed across more than 50 countries and regions worldwide. The products have also obtained dual European CE certifications covering both software and hardware, further strengthening their readiness for broader international market adoption

From intelligent vehicles to embodied AI, Chinese technology companies continue to strengthen their position in the global technology landscape by combining advanced manufacturing capabilities, engineering expertise, and international vision

In an interview with Xinhua News Agency, Piero Scaruffi noted that China has established itself among the world’s leading players in the field of large language models and now ranks at the forefront of several key industry benchmarks

In a symbolic moment reflecting the rapid transformation taking place across the technology sector, the handshake between Scaruffi and a Mojia robot at the Moganshan Conference served as a powerful illustration of China’s robotics industry’s growing global presence and ambition to help shape the next era of embodied artificial intelligence
