Tesla: Countdown to unveil Optimus robot  

While he faces skepticism about how he will make robots widely used

The countdown to Tesla ‘s AI Day on September 30 has begun where it will unveil its humanoid robot named Optimus – after the iconic leader of the Autobots in Transformers. 

We previously knew it as the Tesla Bot , and its presentation has been moved over the summer from August to September, so that, as Elon Musk claims, he will be able to present a working prototype live. 

According to the Reuters report we learn more about Tesla’s ambitious plans. New announcements reveal that it plans to bring thousands of humanoid robots to market, and in the long run, millions . He also mentions the report that within Tesla there are constant meetings on the subject of robots. 

However, he also faces the skepticism of many that he will manage to make these robots widely used and perform tasks in factories, homes or anywhere else. 

Optimus will be humanoid in form and designed to do a myriad of tasks. Musk aspires that they will take over all the boring chores and routine jobs in people’s lives, radically changing society.

Of course, it is one of those cases where words probably don’t convince many, so it remains to be seen in practice if Musk’s company will be able to respond. For the record, there are ambitious projects that Tesla never launched,  such as the robotic – almost snake-shaped – automatic chargers that find the charging port on their own,  or  the 2012 Superchargers that, with solar energy, would generate more electricity than the batteries consume. cars. On the other hand, Musk’s companies have created reusable space rockets, have actually changed the automobile and are working on human brain-computer interfaces, among other things, with Neuralink.

All scenarios, therefore, are possible and it remains to be seen on September 30 whether the Optimus will be able to deliver on their promises.
