$500 billion in market cap for a robot that needs a human to operate its hands and needs another human to do the job that the robot can’t do

It’s totally worth it to engage in toxic mining practices for the materials to build a remote-controlled robot that does an inferior job at something humans easily do.

They are going to do surgery on you. We won't need prisons because on of these can be assigned to escort criminals around. Robots will eliminate poverty by "providing economic opportunities." (*actual stuff Musk says)

Im very disappointed to learn I won’t be able to purchase a murderous killer cyborg

reminds me of the Robocop 2 prototype that immediately k*lls itself.

Not true. I'm sure Elon put a headset on a chimp at least once

The number one recipient of government welfare is out there trying to manipulate his investors.

honestly if he stopped lying about it being "ai controlled" and just said it's a humanoid machine that could be piloted from across the globe, it would probably sell better

potempkin-occupied economy

He says that everyone will have an optimus robot in their home but it's just gonna be slaves with vr headsets in a warehouse somewhere.

This sounds like a law school exam question about territorial jurisdiction.

how burny/explodey are their batteries? Just walk one over to a fancy fireplace and wait (or do something like "burn the entire house down at night", I guess)

as a safety feature they're all built like shit and will fall apart on any attempt at violence

Nah, that was the robot gaining sentience and realizing, "Oh fuck, I'm owned by Elon Musk!?" and then crashing

i don't know about you but if i didn't know any better i'd say elon wants to hire wage slaves to do the robot thing behind the scenes. like uber but you're somebody's robo-bitch having to control a robot doing household chores and shit

#FUCKTRUMP and his SILLY DANCE.

Like this?

Nah, theyre awful at most everything else. LLMs are just pattern recognition machines. It doesnt think or create or have a clue what is info or visuals are accurate or inaccurate, only what its data shows is a common response to the prompt. Its why it hallucinate and gets things wrong constantly.

but they would rather grift on androids than embrace their actual achievement

That is stardust!🤟😆

Pretty impressive that it can karate chop a water bottle open though

It feels like he's been inches away from it all falling apart for years now. I don't know what it will take to finally end him at this point. I sorta suspect the answer will end up being really boring, like his empire will just collapse as a consequence of the coming recession

Like isn’t that common knowledge from that Warner Bros. lot bs from a few years ago?

starting to think Elon not talking about sitting on his balls means he definitely sat on his balls

Musk claiming HIS Robots will become the PRIMARY focus of #TESLA 's revenue is yet ANOTHER #MUSK DECEPTION, JOKE, and LIE. #BostonDynamics is 20 years ahead of Musk and he'll NEVER catch up. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-e1_...

My game of chess against the mechanical turk keeps getting interrupted by a muffled disembodied voice complaining about how "cramped and hot it is in here". Unsure if it means anything.

Yeah, that was actually quietly admitted after they had those things in a parade.

So it’s pretty on brand for Elon.

When I first heard about his rocket aspirations in the early 2000s, I was a sci fi nerd who was excited about what seemed to be his driving mission, but his huckstering has been clear since then for anyone caring to notice, and it didn't take long for me to acknowledge be was shit

They were gonna do something dumb with the money either way :(

Funny

It reminds me so much of Thomas Jefferson's "automated" slave house where he had hid tunnels and hidden rooms where the people hw owned would toil out of sight. (yes *that* Thomas Jefferson)

They're either in on the scam or dumb as shit. Either or both is possible.

It looks like this

Not Robert Cop 2!

Disney has made a walking talking Olaf and yet Musk can't even hide his puppeteers right.

No robot should be called Optimus without the Matrix of Leadership.

So hear me out Terminator, but there never was a war and the 1% makes the rest of humanity believe there was by secretly operating drones looking exactly like Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Boomers ability to live leaving their bodies cuz Elon cut their healthcare:

Ha!

Man I totally want to see one of the Elon Shit buckets squad down and mimic pooping and wiping with an unsuspecting op oblivious it's till on

it was brutaly obvious from the first clips they showed of this thing

He's telling the lie that they can pretend they believed.

Elon Musk is the reason people say "reinventing the wheel" as the ultimate in futility. Next, he will try to sell an X-shaped wheel as an improvement, simply because he's infatuated with the letter that's usually used to stand for an algebraic unknown. "Twitter is not well known. I'll call it X"

when like 80% of your national economy is grifters operating on about the same level it's probably the smart move to refrain from going around noticing shit in public, lest you kick off the next great depression and everyone notice *that*

It's important to remember that investors are on average very dumb.

Me right after the post nut clarity kicks in…

When do you thinkt the first major criminal case will be for someone who did a crime while piloting a home-slave robot Or rather which company will be the first to have that inevitable reality thrust upon them
