On July 23rd, it was reported that the Xiaopeng Robotics team is recruiting a large number of soldiers, and the former Seed reinforcement learning expert Chen Jie has joined.

After graduation, he joined Momenta and later joined the ByteSeed team to conduct research on reinforcement learning.
According to sources, Chen Jie had previously been in contact with several Chinese body intelligence companies, but ultimately chose to join Xiaopeng.

Previously, He Xiaopeng himself has repeatedly emphasized that he will achieve profitability in the fourth quarter of this year. The abundant cash flow brought by the automotive business also provides positive expectations for the "refueling" robots.
Xiaopeng Motors has been deeply involved in the humanoid robot industry for 5 years, and may continue to do so for another 20 years, spending an additional 50 billion, or even hundreds of billions. ”In March of this year, He Xiaopeng stated that he will continue to increase investment in the field of humanoid robots and plans to mass produce L3 level humanoid robots for industrial scenarios by 2026.
