Musk says Tesla aims to start Optimus production in 2023

Speaking at the opening of Tesla's Texas factory, Musk set an ambitious timeline for its humanoid.

At the opening of Tesla's Austin plant, Elon Musk said the company had a shot at beginning production of the first version of its Optimus humanoid the following year. He said it would use the same chips and sensors as Tesla's cars, but no working prototype had yet been shown in public. AI researcher Gary Marcus doubted any robot could handle a broad range of human tasks so soon, and the report noted Musk's history of missed timelines. The claim kept the humanoid race in the headlines.
