Elon Musk’s Optimus cyborg
(Picture: Tesla)After months of mysterious build-up, the world has finally glimpsed Tesla’s much-touted Optimus robot. Elon Musk proudly unveiled a prototype of the AI-powered Optimus Bot, which walked onto the stage and waved at a rapt crowd during the firm’s AI Day event.
A video then showed it doing tasks like watering plants, carrying boxes, and lifting metal bars at Tesla’s California plant. Musk said the car maker will be ready to take orders for these machines in three to five years and that the plan is to price them at $20,000 (£18,000).
