Optimus Robot Revealed at Tesla AI Day

At 2022 Tesla AI Day, Elon Musk gave the public its first look at his company's humanoid robot nicknamed Optimus. He expects the production model to cost less than $20,000.

My slowest coworkers can now claim to work faster than a supercomputer

[sstrick]

So they re-created a 101 year old man.

I liked the part where it required three humans to carry the robot out 😂

[michaelscarn]

Elon: I am afraid AI is going to take over the world in a few years
Elon: Here is a walking robot with AI and will collect data from your homes

[lightstorm]

Optimus walks as fast and stable as a 90 year old human. The Boston dynamics robots run circles around it before it looks and understands whats going on.

But the question is, will it have uneven panel gaps?

[stephenedmunds]

Wait. How has Elon managed to replicate the body language of me in my teens after a night out with my mates, coming home and desperately trying not to wake up my dad when walking around the house in search of snacks.

Elon: A.I. is more dangerous than nuclear annihilation...far more dangerous

Also Elon: heres an A.I. robot

STRONG "Happy Birthday Paulie" vibes

I dont think Boston Dynamics need to worry about closing their doors just yet lol.

[OneBiOzZ]

Wow, they managed to create 2008 Asimo
but with a tether
EDIT: after watching 10 year old Asimo videos, Asimo actually moved fluently

[simmzzzz]

...and here is the production model! It sits on this pole all day and waves at you.

Boston Dynamics has impressed us so much that this looks like a middle school science presentation.

[chrisf]

Woah! This'll be awesome for moving that pile of carefully-positioned cardboard boxes from one side of my room to the other

[kirbyiwaki]

The nostalgia! I feel like I'm watching a Boston Dynamics video from 2010!

2044: We need to go back to 2022 and destroy Tesla

I think most people are missing the point here. The impressive thing isn't how it moves, which is obviously still in development and it won't be it's main feature anyway. The impressive things is (or will be) the fact that it can navigate itself, and recognize and interact with objects in different situation without a specific envelop designed for him to operate in. And that it does it at an "affordable" price 20k, guys, not 200k. That's the point. Yes, compared to Boston's stuff it looks like a 90 years old, but the Boston dog is 75k, and what does it do beside moving graciously?

Tesla: "It can walk! Yipee!"
Boston Dynamics: "Hold my beer."

[Luca-xrbs]

A faster pace than public employees in Italy.

This is where Marvel took inspiration from to create Tony Stark and Ultron
