On December 13th, Musk updated and released the latest ** of the humanoid robot Optimus (Optimus Prime) second-generation robot - GEN2, according to ** news, the robot will be released in the near future. 
The robot is completely independently developed and designed by Tesla, led by Elon Musk, and is equipped with actuators and sensors designed by Tesla. Compared with the debut of the first generation of Optimus in March this year, the performance of Optimus Gen2 has been further improved by the release of Optimus' embodied intelligent end-to-end solution (instruction transmission) in September, with a 30% increase in walking speed, a significant increase in flexibility and balance, and a 10 kg reduction in its own weight. According to related news, Tesla internally named Tesla Bot "Optimus". Its height is 172 m (5 ft 8 in), weight 57 kg, load 20 kg (arm attached5 kg), action speed up to 8 km h. Its surface is made of "lightweight material", which is smoother than that of a human person. Previously, Musk had said that Tesla's most important product this year is robots, and its status is even higher than that of Tesla cars. In early December, the Coin Thunder Rod remembered that there were several Optimus humanoid robots in the launch of Tesla's CyberTruck, and at that time, it could be seen that the robot had made a major breakthrough in "human bionic technology", but there was no more data released at that time. The biggest impression of this ** data release is that the robot has been greatly improved in terms of "control" technology. Optimus Gen2 can pick up an egg with two fingers and complete the "hand-changing" motion. It seems simple, but it is a major test for robot object recognition and force "control" control.
If Optimus is equipped with XAI artificial intelligence technology, which is also owned by Musk, in the future, does it mean that the robot can replace the "vast majority" of jobs in the current society?In particular, the service industry, assembly line manufacturing, and the coin thunder rod are currently engaged in the writing of articlesI'm terrified when I think about it.
More critically, according to news earlier this year, Musk once had**, and he expects that it will take 3-5 years for Optimus to be truly delivered, and the annual production is expected to reach millions of units, less than $20,000. This means that Optimus Gen2 is not the "perfect version" or the "final version" before it came out, which means that there will be further performance improvements in Optimus in the coming years. At that time, will robots have a wider range of uses?
The low ** can not even reach the annual salary of ordinary workers, but it can solve the vast majority of contradictions in production and life "once and for all", and will "tirelessly" create value.
At present, Tesla has said that the second-generation Optimus will first be applied to its manufacturing plant, and once its usefulness is verified, the company will start selling the robot. Musk believes that Optimus Prime is seriously underestimated by the outside world, and the future demand may be as high as 1 billion to 20 billion units. At a time when China's car companies are still "fighting to the death" because of who provides production services for Huawei, Musk has "open sourced" the 48V charging technology...Look at Musk and think about "three horses in the same slot". If the coin thunder rod is not mistaken, the development of robots in our country is still in the stage of "robot dog" somersaults, right?
In recent years, Cao Yuan, the discoverer of superconducting graphene in China's scientific and technological field, will officially teach at the University of California, Berkeley, from July 2024. (Most likely for better academic research) is heart-wrenching, shouldn't it be thought-provoking?Coin Thunder Rod EditThanks for your attentionThose who have different opinions are welcome to exchange !! private message
