A VIDEO of Tesla’s humanoid robot Optimus has left viewers ‘mind blown’ as it displays impressive balance and coordination while doing Yoga.
Optimus, the brainchild of Tesla owner and billionaire Elon Musk, is expected to be ready to hit the shelves sometime in 2027 for an eyewatering sum that is yet to be decided.
Musk has promised to ‘end poverty’ with Tesla’s humanoid robot Optimus.
The eccentric billionaire hopes the robot will walk humans into a “future of abundance, a future where there is no poverty, a future where you can have whatever you want in terms of products and services.”
Musk’s goal was to make a humanoid robot as quickly a possible, revealing the project in August 2021.
Despite just two years since it was first unveiled, onlookers agree that the robot is impressive.
“This is mind blowing stuff!” one onlooker wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
Another tweeted: “It’s incredible to consider where the world will be in a decade, let alone five years, or one…”
However, some onlookers are spooked, given how humanoid robots like Optimus have been portrayed in movies – think I, Robot; Ex Machina; M3GAN.
Several viewers claimed the video even used the same music as Ex Machina, where a beautiful humanoid robot becomes self-aware and outwits its inventor.
