He said, “Twenty miscreants arrested by the operatives of the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps at Oshodi during early morning patrol.”  Last Wednesday that officials of the state task force said it would prosecute the 28 miscreants it arrested in some parts of the state for terrorising and extorting motorists.

Elon Musk Unveils Tesla Optimus Robot That Can ‘Be Your Friend’ | Video


The “humanoid” can do your chores for you for $20,000 to $30,000


Musk on Thursday night unveiled the Tesla Optimus Robot, the company’s new 5’8″ robot that can be, what Musk called, “your own personal R2D2 [or] C-3PO.” The Tesla boss gave a preview of the bot, which the company plans on selling in 2026, at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, CA.


“What can it do? It can basically do anything you want,” Musk said. “It can be a teacher, babysit your kids, it can walk your dog, mow your lawn, get the groceries, just be your friend, serve drinks. Whatever you can think of, it will do.” 


The faceless robot — which looks a bit like it could be the third member of Daft Punk — will cost $20,000 to $30,000 once the company is producing them at scale, Musk said.

While Musk was on stage, the video behind him called the robot an “autonomous assistant, humanoid friend,” as the audience watched it water plants and play board games with a family. (Musk did not say whether the robot from Rocky IV inspired Tesla’s bot.)

Later, event attendees were able to play the robots in games of rock-paper-scissors, watch them dance, and have them serve drinks among other things. 


“I think this will be the biggest product ever, of any kind,” Musk said. “I think everyone is going to want their Optimus buddy, maybe two.” 


Musk — who has shared his concerns about rogue artificial intelligence wrecking humanity — said he believed there was an “80% probability of good” from mass robot adoption. Beyond household chores and playing with your kids, the Optimus Robot will be able to do certain jobs, like move boxes in warehouses.

“The costs of products and services will decline dramatically,” Musk said. 

Tesla’s robots will likely spark further debate about the rise of AI and how it’ll affect workers in a variety of industries.
