Tesla claims that it currently has two Optimus humanoid robots working autonomously in a factory, which would be a first....

It may do the job of a simple conveyor belt but actually, it’s a multimillion-dollar AI-powered, um, robot,

Walking around the factory, Spinning signs that say “we’re going to take your jobs if you unionize”

Black Mirror called. They want you to write for their show.
