Marc Benioff delivered a strong endorsement of Tesla's Optimus humanoid robot, calling it the dawn of a physical Agentforce revolution and a productivity game-changer. Benioff highlighted an estimated price range of $200,000–$500,000 and praised Elon Musk's robotics ambitions.

Tesla shares remained around $333, up more than 22% over six months.
