American entrepreneur Elon Musk has posted a video of the dancing humanoid robot Optimus, with the businessman recalling that in 2021, at the presentation of the idea of creating a humanoid robot, an actor appeared on stage in a costume and performed a dance similar to the one that Optimus is now dancing four years later.
“What started as an actor in a costume is now reality“, Musk said. It was previously reported that Optimus can now walk on uneven terrain thanks to innovative neural networks.
The prototype of the humanoid robot, costing almost $ 20,000, was first shown to the public in October 2022. He went on stage, waved to the audience and swayed slightly to the rhythm of the music. "I think Optimus will be amazing in five years, and in ten years it will be absolutely amazing," Musk said at the time. That's how far the robot has come now. Look!
