Tesla recently unveiled its humanoid robot, Optimus, to the world. Elon Musk confidently claims that this robot can accomplish everything a human can think of. At a recent event, Musk announced that the latest version of Optimus can now “do anything,” hinting at a future where robots might perform nearly all tasks humans do.
From washing clothes to walking the dog and even scratching your back, Optimus can reach areas that might be difficult for you. Fans have begun to share their thoughts on this groundbreaking robot.
One user remarked, “Black Mirror has depicted the onset of the robot age in a strange way. Having a robot in your home without understanding the terms and conditions could be dangerous.” Many AI enthusiasts and commentators voice their concerns about the potential downsides of robots.
Another user noted, “I’ve seen movies like this, and it doesn’t end well for us. Initially, there are good intentions, but then something goes wrong, and the robot turns on its owner.” A different user inquired, “I’m just wondering if I should buy this one.”
During the event, Musk elaborated on Optimus’s capabilities, stating that it can walk your dog, care for children, mow the lawn, and perform many tasks typically reserved for humans. He estimates that the price of Optimus will range from $20,000 to $30,000. Musk added, “I believe this will be the most important product ever created. I think every one of the 8 billion people on Earth would want an Optimus friend.”
