Elon Musk plans to have genuinely useful humanoid robots in low production for internal use in Tesla factories next year, with hopes to expand into high production for other companies by 2026.
The robot, Optimus, is designed to do boring, repetitious, and dangerous work, standing at 1.7 meters tall and weighing 56kg, named after Optimus Prime from Transformers.
Musk aims for Tesla's robot business to outweigh its cars, with previous demonstrations showcasing the robot's abilities like carrying boxes, watering plants, and moving metal bars.
Musk previously made bold claims on when the robot, Optimus, would be ready for commercial use, with past events showcasing prototypes and futuristic visions for the technology.
