Elon Musk said that the advanced Optimus robot is still being tested in the laboratory, but in a year and a half it will, theoretically, be ready to start sales. Moreover, this same humanoid robot, judging by the billionaire’s promises, will perform a number of tasks at the Tesla plant by the end of this year. At the same time, experts remind that Elon Musk has a whole series of bold promises that he has not kept. For example, in 2019 he promised to launch a self-driving taxi service in 2020 - it still hasn’t.
