The Big Lie: France Urged To Embrace Robotics Over Immigration<\/span><\/p>\n

French political figure \u00c9ric Zemmour is arguing that robotics represents the true economic future of France, offering a technological solution to labor shortages in factories and farms rather than relying on mass immigration.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cRobotics is the economic future of France. Robots will provide our factories and our farmers with the arms they are missing. France can choose technology rather than migratory submersion through work. For an eternal, powerful, and sovereign France in modernity: more robots, fewer immigrants,\u201d<\/strong><\/em> wrote Zemmour on X.<\/p>\n

Zemmour\u2019s post directly references an interview conducted by French outlet Le Journal du Dimanche with \u00c9ric Marchiol, Renault\u2019s director of industrial metaverse and quality.<\/p>\n

In the interview, Marchiol detailed Renault\u2019s development of Calvin, a new humanoid robot created in partnership with French company Wandercraft. Designed for industrial environments, Calvin is compact, capable of handling heavy loads of up to 40 kilograms (88 pounds), and adaptable to real factory conditions \u2014 such as navigating uneven packaging or small steps on assembly lines.<\/p>\n

Renault already operates around 11,000 traditional industrial robots and 8,000 autonomous guided vehicles. The Calvin robot represents the next generation: more flexible, intelligent, and space-efficient than older fixed-arm systems. The company is testing it for repetitive, physically demanding tasks like tire handling on fast-moving production lines.<\/p>\n

Marchiol emphasized that robotization is essential for competitiveness: \u201cWithout automation and without robotization, there is no more competitive industry.\u201d <\/strong><\/em>He noted France currently has about 190 robots per 10,000 workers \u2014 significantly behind China at 380 and Germany.<\/p>\n

The goal, he said, is to deploy these humanoid robots widely across Renault and its suppliers within the next four to five years, targeting difficult-to-fill, physically strenuous jobs.<\/p>\n

Robots over mass immigration<\/h2>\n

As Remix News has\u00a0extensively reported over the last years<\/a>, automation, robotics, and now artificial intelligence are increasingly seen as the primary solution to labor shortages, and mass immigration may even hinder the development of these technologies. <\/strong>Western employers, instead of developing this groundbreaking technology to work in factories and agriculture, are often still relying on human labor promised to them by Western liberal leaders. Often, this human labor comes with\u00a0enormous welfare and cultural assimilation costs.<\/a><\/p>\n

Zemmour, like many others, is pointing to this automation drive as the real solution to labor shortages. He wrote that Renault\u2019s initiative as proof that France can solve its industrial labor gaps through innovation instead of large-scale immigration.<\/p>\n

Remix News has run a series entitled \u201cthe big immigration lie<\/a>\u201d detailing the shift in thinking on immigration, with the Asian countries serving as the main counter example to Europe\u2019s present course of open borders.<\/strong> Instead of embracing cheap labor and millions of culturally alien immigrants, Asian countries like Japan, China, South Korea, and Taiwan have focused on their native populations and implementing harsh immigration restrictions.<\/p>\n

These Asians countries now lead in many areas over Europe, including AI, robotics, renewable energies, electric cars, and automation technology in factories.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Larry Fink, the CEO of BlackRock and arguably one of the most powerful men on the planet,\u00a0openly said last year\u00a0<\/a>that the countries with xenophobic immigration policies are going to have a higher standard of living, faster productivity growth, and will be better able to accommodate the social impact of artificial intelligence advances over the coming years.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, we always used to think shrinking population is a cause for negative growth. But in my conversations with the leadership of these large developed countries that have xenophobic immigration policies, they don\u2019t allow anybody to come in, shrinking unemployment, excuse me, shrinking demographics. These countries will rapidly develop robotics and AI and technology. And if the promise, I didn\u2019t say it\u2019s going to happen, but as a promise of all that transforms productivity, which most of us think it will, we\u2019ll be able to elevate the standard of living of countries and the standard of living of individuals even with shrinking populations,\u201d said Fink.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd so the paradigm of negative population growth is going to be changing. And the social problems that one will have in substituting humans for machines is going to be far easier in those countries that have declining populations,\u201d he said.<\/em><\/p>\n

When Fink talks about xenophobic countries, he is talking about countries like South Korea, China, and Japan,<\/strong> where robotics and AI are being used to deal with the demographic situation instead of mass immigration.\u00a0<\/p>\n
