Hot off of proudly announcing that he had replaced 4,000 people with AI at his company, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff posted a video of Tesla's humanoid robot, Optimus, calling it a "productivity game-changer." However, going by the 52-second clip, the carmaker has a long way to go until it can successfully have AI-powered bipedal robots replace human jobs. Is this really what will make up a whopping 80 percent of Tesla's value, as Tesla CEO Elon Musk promised in a tweet earlier this week? In an

In a striking shift of narrative, Elon Musk has declared that Tesla’s future valuation will derive 80% from its Optimus humanoid robots, not its electric vehicle business. This declaration, made in tandem with the release of Tesla’s “Master Plan Part IV,” shifts the spotlight firmly to robotics and AI as the company’s aspirational core. Optimus has morphed from a speculative experiment into Tesla’s defining strategic centerpiece. Musk envisions deploying “thousands” of robots in factories by y

futurism.com Unknown 2025-12-18 22:07:21

After delivering all but the finishing blow to Elon Musk's electric vehicle empire with cutting-edge companies like BYD and Li Auto, Chinese industrialists are now setting their sights on the South African billionaire's robotics ambitions. Earlier this week, the Hangzhou-based tech company Unitree Robotics launched what Bloomberg calls one of the world's "first humanoid robots for under $6,000," the Unitree R1, at the relatively low price of just $5,900. While that's still a major chunk of chan
