…that positive perception could spread. North America, Europe, South Korea, and Japan might not be able to compete with China in terms of the size of their labor pools or centralized economic and technology policies. However, they can strategically develop and deploy both workforces and labor through initiatives such as the ARM Institute's RoboticsCareer.org and Amazon's Mechatronics and Robotics Apprenticeship program. The U.S. Alliance of Robotics Clusters has also set onshoring as a priority. Its members—MassRobotics, Silicon Valley Robotics, and the Pittsburgh Robotics Network—have all pursued their own workforce development initiatives.

As of December 2022, only three economies have successfully executed manned space missions, and the U.S. is still the only country to have sent people who walked on the moon. The COVID-19 pandemic led to an unexpected reduction in the budgets allocated by many countries for space programs in 2021, but the reduction wasn’t very significant for any of them.

Zhutian's work tackles this by using learning to eliminate infeasible task plans, and is a step in a promising direction.” Yang wrote the paper with NVIDIA research scientist Caelan Garrett, SB ’15, MEng ’15, Ph.D. ’21; Tomás Lozano-Pérez and…
