Amazon announced on July 1, 2025, that it has reached a historic milestone in the automation of its giant logistics network: the number of robots working in its warehouses and fulfillment centers worldwide has surpassed 1 million. Simultaneously, the tech giant announced the launch of a new AI-based management system called DeepFleet, designed for the intelligent optimization of the entire robotic fleet. As reported by The Wall Street Journal, reaching the one-million-robot mark definitively solidifies Amazons status as the absolute global leader in the practical application and scaling of robotics in logistics. However, the launch of DeepFleet is an even more significant strategic event. It is not just a software update, but a transition to a new level of intelligent management. Instead of each robot optimizing its route individually, DeepFleet views the entire warehouse system as a single, living organism. Using deep learning and complex simulations, the system analyzes product flows in real-time, predicts the formation of "traffic jams" and bottlenecks, and coordinates the movements of all robots simultaneously to achieve maximum throughput and efficiency. According to Amazon, the implementation of DeepFleet has already led to a 10% increase in overall movement efficiency. On the scale of Amazons operations, this seemingly modest figure translates into faster delivery for millions of customers and enormous operational cost savings. This dual announcement demonstrates that the future of logistics lies not just in increasing the number of robots, but in creating intelligent, self-optimizing systems where AI manages highly complex physical processes in real-time.
