On September 30, Tesla unveiled Optimus, a humanoid robot at AI Day. Optimus has a highly flexible hand with independently movable finger joints. It can hold and move objects and use human tools. In the demonstration, Optimus was able to perform tasks such as taking cardboard boxes from a shelf and delivering them to an office worker, watering flowers with a jar, and transferring parts to a cart in a Tesla factory. Tesla CEO Elon Musk said that a mass-produced model of Optimus can be built cheaper than a car, and predicted that it would probably cost less than $20,000. He stated that the robotics business will be more important than the automobile business.
