SAN FRANCISCO, April 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Serve Robotics Inc. (NASDAQ:SERV), a leading autonomous robotics company, recently introduced "Maggie," its first AI-powered conversational robot, during a live demonstration at NVIDIA GTC 2026. Maggie is designed to interact with humans in real time, marking a significant step toward more dynamic, human-centric AI systems operating in the physical world.

"We're building robots that don't just move through the world, but interact with it," said Ali Kashani, CEO and co-founder of Serve Robotics. "With T-Mobile's edge network, our robots can respond, unlocking more natural interactions and bringing physical AI into everyday environments. I'm delighted with the progress made to showcase these capabilities and how they can be incorporated into all physical AI applications, and Serve is proud to work with T-Mobile to be at the forefront of this revolution."

Serve Robotics' autonomous delivery robots operate on sidewalks and handle short-distance, last-mile deliveries in busy urban areas. Using a combination of cameras, sensors, and AI, they navigate city streets, detecting obstacles and interacting safely with pedestrians.

Serve has partnered with T-Mobile to power Maggie using T-Mobile's 5G Advanced and edge computing, enabling real-time responsiveness and more seamless human-robot interactions. Leveraging T-Mobile's next-generation edge network, including ultra-low latency, enhanced security, and localized data processing, Maggie can process and respond to inputs instantly for more natural, interactive experiences.

This collaboration reflects a broader shift toward embedding AI in physical environments, where high-performance connectivity is critical to real-time intelligence.

"Unlocking the full potential of physical AI requires more than intelligence on the device, it demands a network that can support inferencing at the edge where AI is moving and interacting with the world in real time," said Grant Ries, Chief Data & AI Officer, T-Mobile. "T-Mobile's network is uniquely positioned to enable the next generation of physical AI devices, with ultra-low latency, fast speeds and the intelligence built into the network to support whatever will be needed by innovative solutions like Serve's Maggie. Our adaptive, intelligent network is the platform on top of which we will help usher in an AI-enabled future."
