What the fuck do you mean "autonomously"?
Like nobody gave it instructions, but its putting cars together anyway?
The article quoted the tweet as saying, "Deployed two Optimus bots performing tasks in the factory autonomously.”
That could mean assembling cars, or maybe standing in one spot and "don't get in the way".
I'll believe this when I see it.
Walking around the factory, Spinning signs that say "we're going to take your jobs if you unionize"
Black Mirror called. They want you to write for their show.
A task could also be, carrying a box from point A to point B. Walk back, repeat.
It may do the job of a simple conveyor belt but actually, it's a multimillion-dollar AI-powered, um, robot,
The same way that Full Self Driving works: not at all.
Given their infamous quality issues, robot guessing at building a car sounds about right.
Hi, please to meet you. Can I get you anything, coffee, danish? No? Ok, please have a seat. Let me just say, based on your resume, you seem very qualified for the position. So let’s just get the standard questions out of the way. As an Optimus humanoid, what kind of value do you see bringing our company?
