The short version

$AIQ
Global X's AI and technology ETF is the largest fund on our list. It tracks companies developing and using AI, including the chip, cloud and software giants plus robotics and automation names. This is a broad AI fund rather than a pure robotics fund. It holds many of the same mega-cap tech stocks found in a Nasdaq index fund.
$BOTZ
The largest and best-known robotics ETF. BOTZ tracks an index of companies that make industrial robots, automation systems, surgical robots and the AI software and chips behind them, with heavy weightings in the US and Japan. It is fairly concentrated, so a handful of large AI chip and automation names drive a big share of returns. Overlap with broad tech funds is meaningful.
Lower fees and more assets are helpful, but they are not the whole story. The bigger question is which strategy matches what you want to own. This comparison is not a recommendation to buy or sell either fund.
