Tesla Unveils Optimus Robot: Musk Says ‘It Can Do Anything…’

The much anticipated Tesla Cybercab was the main attraction at Friday night’s We, Robot event. Elon Musk, however, also took use of the event to present Optimus, Tesla’s humanoid robot, which he audaciously asserts is now capable of “doing anything.” “The Optimus will walk among you,” Musk said. He continued, “You’ll be able to walk right up to them, and they will serve drinks.”

Musk claims that the Optimus robot’s potential is almost infinite. He said the robot could do things like take your dog on walks, watch over you, mow the lawn, and even bring you drinks.

He predicted that the long-term cost would be between $20,000 and $30,000. Musk confidently asserted, “I believe this will be the most significant product ever created.”

Musk added, “I think everyone among the 8 billion people on Earth will want an Optimus buddy.”

“Optimus robot will revolutionise the world more than ever!” Musk said in a post on X.

Advancements in Optimus: Gen 2 robots

In December 2023, Tesla introduced the latest version of the humanoid robot, Optimus Gen 2. This iteration brings notable upgrades over its predecessor, which could mainly walk and talk. The Gen 2 version features faster walking speeds, improved hand mobility, tactile sensors on its fingers, and several other advancements.

Earlier this year, Musk shared a video on X (formerly Twitter) where Optimus demonstrated a new skill—folding shirts. In the clip, the robot picked up a shirt from a basket and folded it neatly on a table. The post was titled, “Optimus folds a shirt.”

Musk also released another video showing Optimus walking with a human-like gait. Reactions to the video ranged from awe to mild unease, as the humanoid’s movements were eerily lifelike.
