Why To Change Strategy? The world is changing. And in the world of future Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) will have a key role. So Tesla, through the humanoid robot project wants to have a certain impact on development. Not surprisingly, yesterday, Tesla’s AI director, Andrej Karpathy, stated that “Tesla Bot is on track to become the most powerful AI development platform.” Elon Musk said: In terms of the priority of products, I think actually the most important product development we’re doing this year is the Optimus humanoid robot. Moreover, when talking about the Optimus project, Musk said that Tesla’s upcoming robot can help solve labor shortage: I think “Tesla Optimus” has the potential to be more significant than the vehicle business over time. If you think about the economy, the foundation of the economy is labor. Capital equipment is distilled labor. So, what happens if you don’t actually have a labor shortage? I’m not sure what an economy even means at that point. That’s what Optimus is about. So, very important. Initially, the Tesla Bot will be used in Tesla’s own factories, “if we can’t find a use for it, then we shouldn’t expect that others would.” Disclaimer: We may be compensated by some of the companies whose products we talk about, but our articles and reviews are always our honest opinions.
