By the time FSD is literally 'Full Self Driving' and much more safer to use than today, the Tesla bot will be ready. Until then, it is a prototype mannequin compared to the bots by Boston Dynamics. We'll see how it 'really works' soon.

probably trying to lure over some boston dynamics devs with dojo perf and toolchain speed

I loved the no-frills reveal. I’m surprised it wasn’t a collaboration with Boston Dynamics. To paraphrase Elon: “We have the vision and AI so we might as well ship Optimus. Don’t worry, you can outrun it, if you can run faster than 5mph! Coming out sometime next year.” Looking fwd to it.

If you watch the presentation it looks like something they thought of 5 minutes before the presentation. Doubt there's even a prototype. He didn't know what to say about it, just showed the slide and then when people asked questions about it he looked like he was considering everything for the first time.

If an engineer is naive enough for that, maybe it’s Boston Dynamics who will get rid of their worst devs…

Self-driving car community: You realise FSD is literally going to require strong AI, right?

Elon: Hey good point, we should use FSD tech on a humanoid robot since it's strong AI.
