Though Musk claimed that the humanoid robot was 'the biggest product of any kind, ever,' reports reveal that the robots were remotely controlled, challenging their autonomy.
Musk said the $20,000 to $30,000 robot could perform household tasks like mowing lawns and getting groceries. Analysts estimate every household will have one within three years.
Event attendees noted that humans assisted Optimus robots, undermining Musk's claims of their full autonomy, with one robot admitting, 'Today, I am assisted by a human.'
Critics labeled Tesla's Optimus robots a 'parlor trick,' arguing the company misled audiences about the robots' capabilities and reliance on human control.
