Q1 标志着机器人与物理 AI 的一个转折点: PitchBook 录得约 160 亿美元投资,涉及近 500 笔交易,两者均创历史新高。 与 2021–2025 年运行率相比,交易数量增长约 2 倍,交易价值增长 4.5 倍。 因此,投资者正在为一条新的 AI 成本曲线承保:基础模型能力从屏幕迁移到机械臂、车辆、仓库、工厂、医院和家庭。
Q1 marked an inflection point for Robotics and Physical AI:
PitchBook recorded roughly $16B of investment across just under 500 deals, an all-time high on both axes.
versus the 2021-2025 run-rate, deal count is up about 2x while deal value is up 4.5x.
So investors are underwriting a new AI cost curve: foundation-model capability migrating from screens into manipulators, vehicles, warehouses, factories, hospitals, and homes.
