We will be diving into this topic as well in the coming weeks. Bipedal machines have existed for some time. The difference, I think, in Tesla's approach lies in the AI component and design/manufacturing approach, which we explored here: https://www.lianeon.org/p/a-five-step-approach-to-problem-solving

In a world beset by labor shortages, and aging population, Tesla might be onto something. I don't think that these machines would result in net jobs loss. Automation, throughout history, has paradoxically created more jobs, not less.

So clever these robots: but can someone maybe build me a properly programmable washer first ?
