Optimus is showcased at a public event, sparking discussions about its autonomy and capabilities.
It's pretty hard to pass up a robot that can do a wide range of tasks, communicate with people, or respond to commands, all for the low price of twenty thousand dollars. But because it's so impressive, Optimus is sparking a lot of discussion about its level of autonomy, with some speculating that it might have been remotely controlled. So, what's the real story behind Optimus' impressive performance?

Tesla utilizes existing technology from its electric vehicles to rapidly develop Optimus, leveraging innovations like AI and advanced motors.
although tesla only brought out around 50 robots the company may have already bought hundreds must confirm that integrating technology already developed for tesla's evs into optimus has allowed the company to move faster than usual meaning tesla didn't have to build optimus from scratch but rather leveraged existing technology to quickly ramp up towards the goal of making thousands of units by next year According to Elon Musk, advanced technologies like battery systems, motors, power electronics, and AI from Tesla's vehicles can also be applied to the humanoid robots. So everything we've developed for our cars The batteries, power electronics, the advanced motors, gearboxes, the software, the AI inference computer, it all actually applies to a humanoid robot.

Elon Musk explains how Optimus can perform human-like tasks, though its initial functionalities were deemed too basic by users.
Elon stated that even the CyberCab's RoboTaxi and RoboVan can be considered robots, but they're just robots on wheels. Creating an Optimus robot with arms and legs enables it to perform tasks in spaces designed for humans, like climbing stairs, using tools, and interacting with objects. Since launched, we only saw Optimus doing simple tasks like folding shirts, holding eggs, or sorting 4680 batteries off the assembly line. These tasks were a bit too basic for user expectations. Most people wanted to do much more, and more importantly, they want to see the practical utility and features of Tesla's robot in real-world scenarios rather than just through Tesla's update videos.

Optimus demonstrates its ability to handle complex tasks such as serving drinks, surprising attendees with its advancements.
Although there's still a lot of work to do, it's surprising to see more complex tasks that these robots can handle. We're not exaggerating to say that scenes like this belong in sci-fi movies about robots. Terminator 2, anyone? Not one robot can open the trunk of a car and bring your groceries to the kitchen.

In a home setting, Optimus is shown managing various household tasks, emphasizing its integration into daily life.
It can also clean the kitchen, receive packages from the Amazon ferry, check them, bring them inside, or even pour water for guests whenever you have company over. This means that a lot of household tasks can be handled by these robots, even when you're gone for a long time. When you come back home, everything's still neat and tidy, your pets are taken care of, and the grass and the lawn is cut. Oh my goodness, just like Elon always says, the future looks like the future.

Musk highlights the global interest and demand for Optimus, indicating a huge reservation list for the robot.
Musk never hesitated to say that the reservation list for Optimus is going to be huge, especially since eight billion people across the world want their own Tesla bot, as he mentioned at the event.
