Oct 13 2024, 10:54 IST Tesla Optimus serving drinks to guests at the We, Robot event. (Tesla) Can you imagine going to an event only to see a humanoid robot serving drinks, and even posing for photos? Well, the “future” is certainly here, and Elon Musk has a big part to play in it. At the Tesla ‘We, Robot' event, attendees were awestruck to see Tesla's humanoid robot—Optimus—serving drinks and having conversations while at it. For those uninitiated, Tesla's humanoid robot project isn't new; the first generation. Early demos were shown in 2021, and Optimus Gen 1, was unveiled in March 2022, and subsequently, Tesla launched Optimus Gen 2 in December 2023. Since then, we have seen the robot doing a myriad of things—from boiling eggs, to folding shirts, to doing yoga, and now, serving drinks to people and having full-blown conversations.
