"It defies the imagination. One chip, one chip that Tesla has developed in recent history here could take the place of pretty much any major computer that might’ve been hanging around in the early 2000’s. These advancements are things that will save lives."

This is what serious business analysts were saying about Tesla's Dojo project - an advanced AI supercomputer that would run Tesla's full self-driving and Optimus (bots) technology. It would have Tesla-designed chips that are better than anything out there. Morgan Stanley valued Dojo alone at ~$200 billion (Toyota's market cap is ~$250 billion). Dojo was very quietly cancelled a couple of months ago, everyone was fired. Serious analysts didn't care, they just slapped a $200 billion higher valuation on Optimus instead and called it a day. Elon said a couple of months ago that Optimus bots are no longer being remotely operated. Nothing matters.

I'm just here, waiting for the day that Tesla finally implodes.

That clip is so fucking funny. How is Tesla valued at what it is.

Heeyyy...that looks just like a person taking off their VR headset

I know, right?! Optimus is getting so advanced and lifelike!

The guy being paid $7.25 an hour to remotely pilot the bazinga bot walked off the job.

| The video shows Optimus performing tasks such as handing out bottled water, posing for photos, and dancing for attendees.

Elon to the remote operator: "Okay, now do the 'jerking two dicks' dance move like your government subsidized paycheck depends on it!"

They're so gonna make these things into cops.

We already know these robots are dumb and useless and they've been remote controlling them since the first day when they announced the stupid Tesla robo taxies and that stupid Tesla bus that can't drive over a tiny speed bump...

Lukewarm prediction: robot slaves remotely puppetted by human slaves so we can all feel smug and comfy about how far we've progressed since the bad old days.

when someone says something so hawktimus you gotta hit em with the tesluah stare

Mf mood

Ok so what if they did train an algorithm based on remote control operation of the same bot and the headset pull just became part of the data; a reaction to "oops I fucked up and am going to be sick".

I would find that equally funny.

I can't wait to learn that like 98% of "AI" was just mechanical turks

It's like the Robocop 2 prototypes
