Elon Musk's humanoid robots, known as Optimus, have captured global attention after a viral video showcased their use as personal assistants during a luxury shopping experience.
The video features a woman accompanied by four Optimus robots, which efficiently carry her shopping bags while she visits high-end stores like Cartier, Louis Vuitton, and Tiffany's. The scene, reminiscent of a science fiction movie, has garnered millions of views and sparked extensive online discussion.
Optimus integrates advanced artificial intelligence and robotics, enabling autonomous movement and adaptability to various environments. This innovation aims to revolutionize daily life by handling repetitive tasks and assisting in both domestic and workplace settings.
Although currently available only at select exhibitions, the project reflects Musk's vision of a future where robots enhance human activities and provide companionship. The online reactions have varied, with some praising the technology's potential to improve shopping experiences, while others express concerns about reliance on intelligent machines.
As of 2023, Tesla employs nearly 140,500 people worldwide, continuing to expand its influence in both technology and robotics.
