And while we&#8217;re waiting for that tech, we can mess around with cheaper AI robots that can do several tasks. But how much does an AI robot cost?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>An AI robot can cost from around $200 to over $500,000, depending on its capabilities and scale. Smaller AI-powered robots like Vector 2.0 cost less than $1,000, whereas AI robots with advanced capabilities and level of interaction, like Ameca, can cost over $100,000.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s go over some of the most popular AI robots that you can buy today to see how much they cost and what they&#8217;re capable of.

There&#8217;s something for everyone, from robot dogs that act like real pooches to Wall-E-inspired Amazon Alexa assistants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Smaller home AI-powered robots start at $200 and can cost around $3000 for more advanced models like the Sony Aibo. The cost largely depends on how advanced the AI and the hardware are. Better AI robots have more and better cameras, touch sensors, moving parts, computational power, and more.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>What Can They Do?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To better understand why the cost varies so much, let&#8217;s go over some of these AI robots to see what they can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vector 2.0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"442\" src=\"https:\/\/techvirality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Vector-2.0-Robot-1024x442.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1143\" srcset=\"https:\/\/techvirality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Vector-2.0-Robot-1024x442.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/techvirality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Vector-2.0-Robot-300x129.jpg 300w, https:\/\/techvirality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Vector-2.0-Robot-768x331.jpg 768w, https:\/\/techvirality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Vector-2.0-Robot.jpg 1291w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>My favorite AI-powered robot has to be the new AI-powered Vector 2.0. The first Vector was launched in 2018 by Anki (now a subsidiary of Digital Dream Labs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vector 2.0 expanded its capabilities <strong>by improving the camera and battery life<\/strong>. It cost <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaldreamlabs.com\/products\/vector-robot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>$399.99<\/strong><\/a> at launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although you <strong>can&#8217;t have a proper conversation<\/strong> with Vector like you can with ChatGPT, you can ask it some basic questions. And its Amazon Alexa integration allows it to do a whole lot more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Vector treads the line between a toy and a tool<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s a complete overview of some things Vector 2.0 can do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Recognize and remember faces.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Navigate around the desk without bumping or running off of it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Set a timer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tell you the weather and news.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Goes to his charger on his own.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reacts to his surroundings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Another cool thing about Vector is that he sometimes <strong>does things independently and even ignores you like a real pet<\/strong>.
