> could take back manufacturing dominance from countries with low wages (like China)?

The idea that China is a low wages country should just die. It was the case 10y ago, not anymore.

Some part of China have higher average salaries than some Eastern European countries.

The chance of a robotic industry in the US moving massively jobs from China only due to a pseudo A.I revolution replacing low paid wages (without other external factors, e.g tarifs or sanctions) is close to 0.

Now if we do speak about India and the low skill IT jobs there. The story is completely different.

The wages for factory work in a few Eastern European countries are cheaper than Chinese wages. I suppose they don’t have the access to infrastructure and supply chains the Chinese do but that is changing quickly do to the Russian war against Ukraine
