🤖 Rise of the Robots: Dubai’s Futuristic Workforce Is Here
May 03, 2025·By Tonna Beneto
In a bold leap toward a high-tech future, Dubai has deployed robots in roles that once belonged to humans—sometimes even outnumbering them. From robotic police officers that patrol malls and interact with the public to mechanized camel jockeys that have replaced child riders for ethical reasons, automation is woven into the fabric of daily life.
These robot jockeys, equipped with GPS and remote-control whips, have revolutionized a centuries-old sport, while Dubai Police aim for a 25% robotic force by 2030. It's not just innovation—it's a glimpse into a city where machines and tradition coexist seamlessly.
