Humanoid Robots Waved to the World and Became Reality Sooner Than Expected

By:

Elon Musk’s Tesla has produced the latest prototype of humanoid robot “Optimus” which was unveiled at Tesla’s artificial day and waved to the audience. The robot can water plants, carry a box and move metal bars as it was shown at the event. Musk stated that “the goal is to manufacture a humanoid robot as quickly and beneficial as possible with the fact that there is a lot to be done with the Optimus robot to purify and prove it.” Also, the robot costs less than $20.000 and is expected to be offered in the next three to five years.


Apparently, Elon Musk’s manufacturers focus on robots besides electric cars and rockets with the aim of providing humanity with better tools and using artificial intelligence in advance to make such dreams and innovations a reality. Musk has declared that robots will get involved more often in humans’ lives in the future and assist them in so many aspects as they could be used in homes and take care of elderly.


This could be one of the very first shows that take us to a world where robots are truly engaged with human beings and the environment. Seemingly, Elon Musk and his firms will take the lead and the credit in the future of robotics.
