Tesla unveils Optimus Gen 2: its next generation humanoid robot
• ElectrekOptimus, also known as Tesla Bot, has not been taken seriously by many outside of the more hardcore Tesla fans, and for good reason.
When it was first announced, it seemed to be a half-baked idea from CEO Elon Musk with a dancer disguised as a robot for visual aid. It also didn't help that the demo at Tesla AI Day last year was less than impressive.
At the time, Tesla had a very early prototype that didn't look like much. It was barely able to walk around and wave at the crowd. That was about it.
There's a new bot in town ????
