  1. 0:00So the the the scale of of of Optimus,
  2. 0:03like I said, that's really going to be
  3. 0:05something else. Um
  4. 0:07I think it's going to be the biggest
  5. 0:09product of all time by far.
  6. 0:13Yeah.
  7. 0:15So
  8. 0:18like bigger than cell phones, bigger
  9. 0:20than anything.
  10. 0:21>> The Tesla annual shareholder meeting
  11. 0:232025 has just taken place. And just like
  12. 0:25last year, the spotlight once again
  13. 0:27belonged to the Tesla bot. Elon Musk
  14. 0:30turned this year's shareholder meeting
  15. 0:32into a vivid sci-fi showcase. At the
  16. 0:34event, Musk revealed a series of updates
  17. 0:36and plans for the Tesla bot. As he
  18. 0:39stated, the Tesla bot could one day
  19. 0:41become more common than smartphones and
  20. 0:43might even eliminate poverty through the
  21. 0:45valuable work it will be able to
  22. 0:46perform.
  23. 0:47>> But actually, Optimus will actually
  24. 0:50eliminate poverty. Optimus will actually
  25. 0:52give people incredible medical care.
  26. 0:54>> But it didn't stop there. The audience
  27. 0:57was absolutely thrilled by the Tesla
  28. 0:59bot's performance, complete with dance
  29. 1:01moves. It literally danced along with
  30. 1:03Elon Musk. And this time, there were no
  31. 1:06tethers stabilizing Optimus. Elon Musk
  32. 1:09even went on to declare that Tesla
  33. 1:10Optimus could eventually monitor
  34. 1:12prisoners. Oh my god, this is truly
  35. 1:14insane. Let's get to the latest
  36. 1:16announcements about the Tesla bot right
  37. 1:18now. During the meeting, Elon Musk
  38. 1:20called Optimus the biggest product of
  39. 1:22all time, surpassing even the
  40. 1:24smartphone. He envisions that in a few
  41. 1:26decades, every person on Earth will want
  42. 1:28to have their own robot like R2-D2 or
  43. 1:31C3PO in Star Wars, but smarter, more
  44. 1:34useful, and most importantly, more
  45. 1:36humanlike. These Tesla bots won't just
  46. 1:39clean up or carry things. They'll also
  47. 1:41be able to assist in surgery with a
  48. 1:43level of precision that exceeds even the
  49. 1:44best human surgeon.
  50. 1:46>> Optimus will ultimately be better than
  51. 1:47the best human surgeon with a level of
  52. 1:49precision that that isn't possible, that
  53. 1:52that is beyond human. Elon believes
  54. 1:54Optimus could eliminate poverty and
  55. 1:57bring great health care to all. That is
  56. 2:00the greatest promise Elon Musk has made.
  57. 2:02That technology can not only make money
  58. 2:04but also save the world. According to
  59. 2:07Elon Musk, the ingredients needed to
  60. 2:09create Optimus have actually been within
  61. 2:11the Tesla ecosystem for a long time. He
  62. 2:13stated that the cars Tesla is currently
  63. 2:15producing are already robots. They are
  64. 2:17just four-W wheeled robots. For example,
  65. 2:20the Cyber Cab robo taxi is completely
  66. 2:22autonomous just like a robot. Tesla's
  67. 2:24electric vehicles all possess a battery,
  68. 2:26a power electronic system, motors, a
  69. 2:28gearbox, network connectivity, AI based
  70. 2:31vision, a processing chip, control
  71. 2:33software, and the ability to manage a
  72. 2:35fleet of autonomous vehicles. All of
  73. 2:37which are also the constituent elements
  74. 2:39of a complete humanoid robot. Thanks to
  75. 2:41this existing foundation, Musk
  76. 2:43confidently asserted that Tesla has the
  77. 2:45full capability to lead the global
  78. 2:47manufacturing of humanlike robots.
  79. 2:49Optimus is simply a robot with arms and
  80. 2:51legs. From this perspective, Elon Musk
  81. 2:54confidently shared during the meeting
  82. 2:55that Tesla is currently the world's
  83. 2:57largest robot manufacturer. There's
  84. 3:00really three things that are super
  85. 3:01difficult about robots. One is the
  86. 3:03engineering of the forearm and hand
  87. 3:06because the human hand is an incredible
  88. 3:09incredible thing actually.
  89. 3:11>> According to Musk, there are three
  90. 3:12extremely difficult factors that have
  91. 3:14prevented many other companies from
  92. 3:15creating truly effective robots. The
  93. 3:18engineering of the arms and hands,
  94. 3:20artificial intelligence in a real world
  95. 3:22environment, and the ability to achieve
  96. 3:24mass production. Elon Musk emphasized
  97. 3:27that the human hand is a masterpiece,
  98. 3:29extremely dextrous and delicate.
  99. 3:31replicating it is the biggest challenge.
  100. 3:33But he believes Tesla is the only
  101. 3:35company that currently possesses all
  102. 3:37three of those pieces. Something that
  103. 3:39rivals like Boston Dynamics or Figure AI
  104. 3:42still lack. Tesla has experience
  105. 3:44producing millions of cars every year.
  106. 3:46Has a team of AI engineers developing
  107. 3:48the advanced full self-driving system.
  108. 3:51And most importantly, it has the massive
  109. 3:53industrial automation processes
  110. 3:55necessary to scale up robot production
  111. 3:57in the future. when you see Optimus 3.
  112. 4:01Yeah,
  113. 4:04[applause]
  114. 4:08uh you it will seem as though that
  115. 4:11there's someone like like a person in a
  116. 4:13robot outfit. Um which is how we started
  117. 4:16with Optimus.
  118. 4:17>> Currently, Optimus is at version 2.5 and
  119. 4:20can already move independently, navigate
  120. 4:22around office spaces, recharge itself,
  121. 4:24and perform basic tasks. But according
  122. 4:27to Musk, the next generation Optimus 3
  123. 4:30will be a true leap forward. He
  124. 4:32described it as so realistic that when
  125. 4:35you see it, it'll look like a person
  126. 4:37wearing a robot suit. Musk has confirmed
  127. 4:40it will debut in the first quarter of
  128. 4:41next year. Meanwhile, Tesla plans to
  129. 4:44refresh Optimus every year. Version 4 is
  130. 4:47scheduled for 2027 and version 5 for
  131. 4:492028. The company's goal is to release a
  132. 4:52new generation annually, each with major
  133. 4:54upgrades and exponentially larger
  134. 4:56production capacity.
  135. 4:58>> Um, and then Optimus uh
  136. 5:01Optimus 4, you know, that that hopefully
  137. 5:04starts production in 27 and then Optimus
  138. 5:085 in 28. So, it's kind of like an annual
  139. 5:10release cycle with significant
  140. 5:11improvements.
  141. 5:12>> What truly surprised the tech world was
  142. 5:15Musk's cost revelation. Once Tesla
  143. 5:18reaches production of over 1 million
  144. 5:20units per year, he believes each robot
  145. 5:22could cost around $20,000 to build. If
  146. 5:25achieved, that number would mark a real
  147. 5:27revolution in robotics and automation.
  148. 5:31At that cost, Optimus could become a
  149. 5:33companion in every home and business,
  150. 5:35serving in roles from industrial labor
  151. 5:37and health care to hospitality, and even
  152. 5:39assistance for the elderly or disabled.
  153. 5:42Musk also announced Tesla's most
  154. 5:44ambitious production target yet. A line
  155. 5:47capable of building 1 million robots per
  156. 5:49year in Fremont, then 10 million, 100
  157. 5:52million, and eventually a billion robots
  158. 5:55a year, maybe even on Mars. It might
  159. 5:58sound like a joke, but Musk made it
  160. 5:59clear he wasn't exaggerating.
  161. 6:02Tesla is preparing for the fastest
  162. 6:04production ramp of any large complex
  163. 6:06manufactured product in history. Still,
  164. 6:09Musk is no dreamer detached from
  165. 6:10reality.
  166. 6:11He admitted that reaching such scale
  167. 6:13requires Tesla to build its own massive
  168. 6:15chip plant. We're probably going to have
  169. 6:18to build a gigantic chip fab. Got to be
  170. 6:20done. With millions of robots and
  171. 6:23self-driving vehicles depending on high
  172. 6:25performance processors, Tesla cannot
  173. 6:28rely on external suppliers. This move
  174. 6:30signals Musk's intention to make Tesla a
  175. 6:33serious player in the semiconductor and
  176. 6:35AI industries. In the same speech, Musk
  177. 6:37redefined Tesla's mission from
  178. 6:39sustainable energy to sustainable
  179. 6:41abundance. The new goal, he said, is not
  180. 6:44only to deliver clean energy, but also
  181. 6:46to enable lasting prosperity. People can
  182. 6:49have everything they want, from goods
  183. 6:51and services to health care while
  184. 6:53preserving the beauty of nature. With
  185. 6:55Optimus, Tesla envisions a future where
  186. 6:58humans are freed from exhausting labor
  187. 7:00and robots help sustain the economy
  188. 7:02without destroying the planet. Half-
  189. 7:04jokingly, Musk added that instead of
  190. 7:06sending criminals to prison, society
  191. 7:08could give them a free Optimus robot to
  192. 7:10watch and prevent them from committing
  193. 7:12crimes.
  194. 7:14Behind the humor lies his view of future
  195. 7:16security, humane, techdriven, and free
  196. 7:19from imprisonment. While many investors
  197. 7:22remain skeptical, Musk insisted this is
  198. 7:24no fantasy. Tesla, he said, is already
  199. 7:27building real robots that can walk
  200. 7:29around the office 24/7, recharge
  201. 7:31themselves, and operate autonomously
  202. 7:34without supervision.
  203. 7:36This is no longer a stage demo. It's
  204. 7:38proof that mass production is within
  205. 7:40reach. With AI and robotics, Musk
  206. 7:43believes we can scale the global economy
  207. 7:46by 10fold, even 100fold. A vision
  208. 7:49powerful enough to upend every
  209. 7:50traditional economic model. But along
  210. 7:53with that promise come immense
  211. 7:54challenges. Mass producing millions of
  212. 7:56robots demands vast supply chains,
  213. 7:58components, software, cyber security,
  214. 8:00and cost control.
  215. 8:03A robot might one day replace a doctor,
  216. 8:05but it could also raise debates about
  217. 8:07ethics, privacy, and employment. Tesla
  218. 8:10must prove that this technology is safe,
  219. 8:12transparent, and built to serve
  220. 8:14humanity, not replace it. Even so, few
  221. 8:18can deny the influence of Elon Musk, the
  222. 8:22man who can make the world believe that
  223. 8:23the future of humankind might begin at a
  224. 8:25shareholder meeting. Okay, you know that
  225. 8:28means Tesla must create nearly every key
  226. 8:30component inhouse from actuators to
  227. 8:32control systems, pushing vertical
  228. 8:34integration to unprecedented levels.
  229. 8:36It's a massive undertaking, one that
  230. 8:38only a company with Tesla's scale and
  231. 8:40manufacturing expertise could
  232. 8:41realistically attempt. Beyond the
  233. 8:43challenges of engineering and mass
  234. 8:45production, one of the biggest issues
  235. 8:46Tesla faces in developing Optimus is
  236. 8:49ensuring the robot's absolute safety.
  237. 8:52Elon Musk has repeatedly warned about
  238. 8:54this concern.
  239. 8:55>> I think we have to be careful about
  240. 8:56Optimus being potentially uh used uh in
  241. 8:59ways that are bad uh cuz that is one of
  242. 9:03the possible things to do. So
  243. 9:06>> yeah, we all know that Optimus isn't
  244. 9:09just a simple machine. It's a humanoid
  245. 9:11AI system capable of perception,
  246. 9:13movement, and interaction within human
  247. 9:15environments. That makes it an extremely
  248. 9:17sensitive target in today's increasingly
  249. 9:19complex global cyber security landscape.
  250. 9:22If the control systems, sensor data, or
  251. 9:24decision-making algorithms of Optimus
  252. 9:26were ever leaked or hacked, the
  253. 9:28consequences wouldn't just be physical
  254. 9:29damage, they could pose a direct threat
  255. 9:31to human safety. Imagine thousands of
  256. 9:34Optimus robots operating in factories,
  257. 9:38hospitals, or even homes. A single
  258. 9:40software vulnerability could allow
  259. 9:42hackers to take control and turn them
  260. 9:44into tools for disruption or harm. For
  261. 9:47instance, you might ask it to fetch
  262. 9:49medicine, but it could hand you the
  263. 9:50wrong one due to a compromised command.
  264. 9:53That's why Elon Musk and the Tesla team
  265. 9:55are building a multi-layered security
  266. 9:56ecosystem, including data encryption,
  267. 9:59real-time monitoring, AI firewalls, and
  268. 10:02automatic safety lock mechanisms that
  269. 10:04activate whenever abnormal behavior is
  270. 10:06detected. Tesla has stated that it will
  271. 10:08develop secure remote control protocols,
  272. 10:10allowing humans to intervene immediately
  273. 10:12if a robot ever acts beyond its
  274. 10:15permitted boundaries. However, what's
  275. 10:17truly noteworthy is that unlike electric
  276. 10:19vehicles or standard software, a
  277. 10:21humanoid robot can learn and self-
  278. 10:22adjust its behavior through machine
  279. 10:24learning. This makes it extremely
  280. 10:26challenging to ensure that Optimus
  281. 10:28doesn't learn the wrong things or get
  282. 10:30tampered with during its training
  283. 10:32process. Every advancement in the
  284. 10:34robot's cognitive abilities also means
  285. 10:36an increase in security risks, which is
  286. 10:38why Tesla must tightly integrate
  287. 10:40artificial intelligence, tech ethics,
  288. 10:42and cyber security. In short, Elon Musk
  289. 10:45has emphasized that the Tesla bot must
  290. 10:47be completely safe before it's made
  291. 10:49available to the public.
  292. 10:50>> Of course, we need make sure Optimus is
  293. 10:52safe and everything, but but I I do
  294. 10:55think we're headed for a world of
  295. 10:57sustainable abundance.
  296. 10:58>> Right now, Tesla's focus remains on
  297. 11:00something far more practical, household
  298. 11:02chores. This stage of development might
  299. 11:04seem modest compared to the robot's
  300. 11:06long-term ambitions in factories or even
  301. 11:08Mars colonies, but it's a crucial first
  302. 11:10step. Elon Musk understands that for the
  303. 11:13public to truly accept humanoid robots,
  304. 11:15Optimus must first prove itself useful
  305. 11:17in daily life. A robot that can tidy the
  306. 11:19living room, fold laundry, or prepare a
  307. 11:22simple meal will have a much easier time
  308. 11:24earning the trust and curiosity of
  309. 11:26customers than one performing complex
  310. 11:28industrial tasks that feel distant from
  311. 11:31everyday reality. For decades, when
  312. 11:33people imagined robots and artificial
  313. 11:35intelligence, the images came straight
  314. 11:37out of science fiction. gleaming
  315. 11:39androids from movies like I robot
  316. 11:42walking, talking, and serving breakfast
  317. 11:44in futuristic kitchens. But in the real
  318. 11:46world, that dream felt impossibly far
  319. 11:49away. The idea of a machine casually
  320. 11:51standing in your kitchen, making a
  321. 11:53sandwich, or reaching into the fridge
  322. 11:55for a drink seemed almost absurd. After
  323. 11:58all, cooking and cleaning aren't just
  324. 12:00about strength. They require finesse,
  325. 12:02adaptability, and the delicate control
  326. 12:04of human hands. things that even the
  327. 12:07most advanced machines have long
  328. 12:08struggled to replicate. That's where the
  329. 12:10Tesla bot Gen 3 breaks new ground. Tesla
  330. 12:13has designed Optimus with a level of
  331. 12:14anatomical precision that borders on
  332. 12:16human. The human hand with its 27 joints
  333. 12:19and intricate network of tendons and
  334. 12:21muscles is capable of both strength and
  335. 12:23subtlety. From holding a heavy pan to
  336. 12:26threading a tiny needle. To mimic this,
  337. 12:28Tesla has engineered dozens of miniature
  338. 12:30actuators inside each robotic hand,
  339. 12:33allowing for up to 22 degrees of
  340. 12:35freedom. In simple terms, this means
  341. 12:37each finger can move, bend, and react
  342. 12:40almost like a real one. It's not just
  343. 12:42engineering, it's biomechanics brought
  344. 12:44to life. And while the day Optimus
  345. 12:46casually flips pancakes in your kitchen
  346. 12:48may still be a few years away, the
  347. 12:50technology being developed today is what
  348. 12:52will make that once impossible scene a
  349. 12:54reality. It's precisely because of this
  350. 12:56highly sophisticated hand design that
  351. 12:58Optimus can perform delicate tasks that
  352. 13:00once seemed impossible for robots. It
  353. 13:03can gently cradle an egg without
  354. 13:05breaking it, slice a tomato into paper
  355. 13:07thin pieces without crushing it, and
  356. 13:09spread mayonnaise with just the right
  357. 13:10amount of pressure, a level of control
  358. 13:12that blurs the line between machine and
  359. 13:14human. Most robotics companies like
  360. 13:16Unitry or Boston Dynamics have mastered
  361. 13:18agility. Their robots can run, jump, or
  362. 13:20even dance, but they still can't peel an
  363. 13:23orange. The difference lies not in
  364. 13:25strength, but in fine motor control and
  365. 13:27cognitive understanding, areas where
  366. 13:29Tesla has taken the lead. Optimus
  367. 13:32doesn't just see the world. It perceives
  368. 13:34and understands it. Using an advanced
  369. 13:37network of cameras and 3D sensors, it
  370. 13:40can recognize objects in the kitchen not
  371. 13:42just by shape, but by function. Through
  372. 13:44intensive training by Tesla engineers,
  373. 13:47the robot learns that a knife is used
  374. 13:48for cutting, a jar holds sauces, and a
  375. 13:51pan is for cooking. This information is
  376. 13:53stored and processed within Optimus'
  377. 13:55central AI brain, which allows it to
  378. 13:57make real-time decisions and execute
  379. 13:59each step with remarkable precision.
  380. 14:03Every movement, from reaching for a
  381. 14:06utensil to turning on a stove, is the
  382. 14:08result of millions of micro calculations
  383. 14:10happening in fractions of a second. For
  384. 14:13over a year now, Optimus has been
  385. 14:15training 16 hours a day at Tesla's
  386. 14:17research facility in PaloAlto,
  387. 14:19California. What makes this process
  388. 14:22revolutionary is how it learns. Instead
  389. 14:25of being programmed line by line like
  390. 14:26traditional robots, Optimus learns
  391. 14:29autonomously through a sim to real
  392. 14:31method. The same way humans learn
  393. 14:33through observation and practice. It can
  394. 14:35watch tutorial videos, observe a human
  395. 14:37making a sandwich or cleaning a table
  396. 14:39and then simulate the process in a
  397. 14:41virtual environment. Within that
  398. 14:43simulation, it makes mistakes, analyzes
  399. 14:46them, and gradually improves until it
  400. 14:48achieves nearperfect performance.
  401. 14:50This continuous learning loop allows
  402. 14:52Optimus Gen 3 to master new tasks every
  403. 14:55single day, whether it's preparing
  404. 14:57breakfast, setting the table, or
  405. 14:59organizing a messy kitchen. According to
  406. 15:01Elon Musk, the next version of Optimus
  407. 15:03will feature major hardware and mobility
  408. 15:05upgrades, giving it faster reflexes,
  409. 15:07more natural walking movements, and
  410. 15:09better balance across uneven terrain.
  411. 15:12While today's prototype still moves
  412. 15:13cautiously, Musk promises that by the
  413. 15:15time Optimus is ready for commercial
  414. 15:17release, it will walk, move, and react
  415. 15:19like a human. And most impressively, it
  416. 15:21will almost never fall down. Optimus
  417. 15:24isn't just a robot that follows spoken
  418. 15:26commands. It's designed to understand
  419. 15:28humans on a deeper, more intuitive
  420. 15:29level. Thanks to its advanced perception
  421. 15:32systems, it can interpret not only voice
  422. 15:34instructions, but also facial
  423. 15:35expressions and body language. Imagine
  424. 15:38standing in your kitchen after dinner.
  425. 15:40You don't even need to say a word. A
  426. 15:42simple glance toward a pile of dirty
  427. 15:44dishes or a quick point of your finger
  428. 15:46is enough for Optimus to recognize what
  429. 15:48you want. Within seconds, it will calmly
  430. 15:50approach the sink, roll up its digital
  431. 15:52sleeves, and start cleaning. This
  432. 15:54ability to read non-verbal cues makes
  433. 15:56interaction with Optimus feel far more
  434. 15:58natural, almost like communicating with
  435. 16:00another person rather than a machine.
  436. 16:03The secret behind this lies in the AI5
  437. 16:06cognitive system that powers the Tesla
  438. 16:08bot Gen 3. This next generation neural
  439. 16:11architecture allows Optimus to build its
  440. 16:13own navigation maps and adapt
  441. 16:15dynamically to different home
  442. 16:16environments. Every house is unique.
  443. 16:19From narrow hallways and uneven floors
  444. 16:21to cluttered living rooms and playful
  445. 16:23pets darting around using its onboard
  446. 16:25cameras, depth sensors, and real-time
  447. 16:27processing unit, Optimus constantly
  448. 16:29scans its surroundings, creating a
  449. 16:31three-dimensional layout of the home. It
  450. 16:33remembers where the furniture is, knows
  451. 16:35which rooms are connected, and can move
  452. 16:37effortlessly between them without
  453. 16:38bumping into anything. Even more
  454. 16:40impressively, Optimus' AI system is
  455. 16:42contextaware.
  456. 16:44It can distinguish between a chair and a
  457. 16:46sleeping pet, a dropped toy and a power
  458. 16:48cord, and adjust its movements
  459. 16:50accordingly. If a child suddenly runs
  460. 16:52across the room or a dog wags its tail
  461. 16:54near its feet, Optimus instantly
  462. 16:56recalculates its path, maintaining both
  463. 16:59safety and efficiency. This situational
  464. 17:02intelligence represents a leap forward
  465. 17:04from earlier robots that relied on rigid
  466. 17:06pre-programmed routes. Instead of merely
  467. 17:08following commands, Optimus interprets
  468. 17:11intentions, combining human cues,
  469. 17:13environmental data, and predictive
  470. 17:15reasoning to act with precision and
  471. 17:17empathy. It's not just automation. It's
  472. 17:20the beginning of true coexistence
  473. 17:22between humans and intelligent machines
  474. 17:24in everyday life. What do you think
  475. 17:26about Elon Musk's ambition with Tesla
