Elon Musk, Tesla's CEO and product architect, unveiled his company's human-like robot, Tesla Optimus. .The humanoid robot — Musk's main project focus as of late — stands about 5-ft. 8-in. tall and will, according to the CEO, "... replace people in repetitive, boring, and dangerous tasks," he wrote in a column in a China-based publication. ."Today’s cars are increasingly like smart, web-connected robots on wheels. In fact, in addition to cars, humanoid robots are also becoming a reality, with Tesla launching a general-purpose humanoid robot (Tesla Bot) in 2021," wrote Musk in the column. ."The Tesla Bot is close to the height and weight of an adult, can carry or pick up heavy objects, walk fast in small steps, and the screen on its face is an interactive interface for communication with people.".Musk said the robot was designed with legs to "adapt to its environment and be able to do what humans do." .He sees his humanoid robots rolling out over the next decade and will not only be used in industrial labour settings, but will be used in homes to tackle household tasks and care for the elderly. ."Our 'four-wheeled robots' — cars — have changed the way people travel and even live," said Musk.."One day when we solve the problem of self-driving cars (i.e., real-world artificial intelligence), we will be able to extend artificial intelligence technology to humanoid robots, which will have a much broader application than cars.".Musk said he foresees Tesla will launch the first prototype this year on September 30 at its Tesla AI Day 2, and will then focus on "improving the intelligence of that robot" and work towards large-scale production, as reported by electrek. .This is what the Western Standard is up againstThe Trudeau government is funding lies and propaganda by directly subsidizing the mainstream media.
