Description

In this episode of People Before Machines, Amanda Cupido sits down with The Robot Queen, Vanessa Loiola, Founder and CEO of Valoy Automation, to explore human-first robotics. Vanessa debunks the myth that robots replace workers, arguing instead that they replace repetitive, grueling tasks to free up human potential. They discuss her journey as a leading woman in a male-dominated field, the reality behind "collaborative" applications, and the critical need for empowering operators through training. Learn why Vanessa believes programming robots is actually about programming a better future—one where technology gives us back our time to focus on life.
