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

I claim the Isle of Wight.

I can just imagine the twisted version of Robbie (pdf warning) this might produce coming from Musk.

Tesla can “claim” whatever they want. At this point, I’m not sure I’d believe it even if I saw it

What the fuck do you mean “autonomously”?

Like nobody gave it instructions, but its putting cars together anyway?

Hi, please to meet you. Can I get you anything, coffee, danish? No? Ok, please have a seat. Let me just say, based on your resume, you seem very qualified for the position. So let’s just get the standard questions out of the way. As an Optimus humanoid, what kind of value do you see bringing our company?

Given their infamous quality issues, robot guessing at building a car sounds about right.

The article quoted the tweet as saying, "Deployed two Optimus bots performing tasks in the factory autonomously.”

That could mean assembling cars, or maybe standing in one spot and “don’t get in the way”.

I’ll believe this when I see it.

A task could also be, carrying a box from point A to point B. Walk back, repeat.

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.

The same way that Full Self Driving works: not at all.

As many a person has said before when an outlandish and unproven claim is made: pics or it didn’t happen.

Prolly just a guy dressed up again and dancing like there will be no tomorrow

I assume anything coming out of a Musk company is a lie unless I see it with my own eyes. And then I see an optometrist.

Any one who submits content starting with “Tesla says”’nor “Musk says” should have a serious word with themselves

Meh, it’s a tech story in this tech community.

They’re propping each other up.

sounds more likely than the robots tbh

All the Tesla robots have advanced AI, i.e. will actually be controlled virtually by people in India.

just like Amazon no-checkout grocery store!

“An autonomous humanoid? Without prior experience, without any instructions, working entirely within your factory?”

“Yes.”

“May we see it?”

“No.”

So translating Musk to reality, they probably have 2 robotic arms working of a pre programmed algorithm that make them go back and forward
