Elon Musk’s humanoid Tesla robot predicted to be ready in months

American automotive and clean energy company TESLA, intent to have a operative prototype humanoid robot by the end of September.

CEO Elon Musk announced a second Tesla “AI DAY” for Aug. 19, with many cool updates from the company’s projects.

The company in its previous years gives more concentration on the self-driving program but also announced plans for the “Tesla Bot” humanoid robot — known as “Tesla Optimus.”

The second AI Day was then delayed to Sept. 30, with Musk writing on Twitter: “we may have an Optimus prototype working by then.”

In an interview at the Qatar Economic Forum on Tuesday, Musk said that the company is “tracking” toward a working prototype.

“Well, I hope that we will have an interesting prototype to show people,” he said.

“We have a very talented team at Tesla that I’m working with closely to have a prototype humanoid robot ready by the end of September.

“And I think we are tracking to that point.”

He also implied that they would showcase other things at the event to prove that Tesla is a “real-world AI company.”

“We have these sort of AI Day events to just emphasize that Tesla is a lot more than a car company and that we are, in my view, the leading real-world AI company that exists.”
