Caption: Elon Musk Reveals Tesla's Humanoid Robots for Internal Use Starting Next Year. Tesla CEO Elon Musk reveals plans to produce and use humanoid robots, named Optimus, starting next year, with a goal of selling them by 2026, BBC News reports. Optimus robots will initially be used within Tesla's operations before being made available to other companies in 2026. Musk previously anticipated that Optimus would be ready for use in Tesla factories by the end of this year. Other major companies like Honda and Boston Dynamics are also in the race to develop advanced humanoid robots. Musk aims for low production of Optimus robots for internal use in 2024 and plans to ramp up to high production levels for external sales by 2026. Tesla’s stock rose by over 5% ahead of the company’s financial results announcement, buoyed by optimism around new initiatives like the humanoid robots. The Optimus robots are designed to handle unsafe, repetitive, or boring tasks, enhancing efficiency and safety in various applications. Musk’s vision includes mass-producing these robots at a target price below $20,000 each, making them accessible for widespread use. Known for setting ambitious goals, Musk’s timelines have not always been met, raising questions about the feasibility of his projections. As demand for electric vehicles slows, Tesla is increasingly focusing on cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, autonomous driving, and robotics to drive future growth.
