Reply to comment by Chippopotanuse in Elon Musk unveils humanoid ‘Optimus’ robot at Tesla’s AI Day by Superbuddhapunk

I’m not going to link it for you. Go find it on YouTube. You can see it recognizing the world, navigating it and doing simple tasks in the office and factory. Who knows if it will deliver. Could be the next landing rocket, or could be nothing at all

Wow, I imagined something bad, and then I searched, and it was worse.

The only smart thing they did was make it look humanoid so people would give it a break when it fucked up.

Lol. Okay, man. Converted AI able to recognize and label its environment in real time, interact with it, perform useful tasks with in it into a bipedal untethered frame in less than a year. Here let me hold your beer. Go over there and show them who’s boss. This is a recruiting event so I’m sure it’d be welcome. Crazy ass redditors.

Can I build one myself from scratch? nope, and neither can Elon.

Is any of this new advanced technology that hasn’t been seen before? Also nope.

Is it still just a prototype? Yep

Can you link me any other instances of ai installed in a biped robot generating voxels and auto labeling and interacting with the environment based on that? I’d be pretty interested to see it. That’d be exciting

I’m curious, how many minutes/hours/days of footage have you seen of this biped robot navigating with ’AI’?

More than the time I’ve spent watching competitors do it, as none have. I’m waiting on the evidence to the contrary. Waiting on a link or two if you have them, friend.

Lol, that wasn’t an answer, how many minutes of unedited footage have you seen? I’ll just say that Ive seen as many hours of unedited footage of this robot functions as you have.

Lol. All videos are edited friend. If you you insist on an answer, I think there were a couple of minutes demonstrating the ai and how it works. Now about those links

Not all videos are edited for marketing no. What you saw was brief clips of the robot doing a singular task with no context. Yes it’s impressive compared to the 90s when Japanese car companies were into robots.

I bet multiple youtubers could produce a bipedal robot that succeeds in at least three several second tasks.

Frankly, it really seems like his AI vision tech isn’t ready for the road and has been pivoted to industrial vision tech, but that’s been around for awhile, so he put it in a humanoid robot for the cool factor.

Just curious - can Optimus send me a link or two? Like, can I ask it to do that and can it respond in some fashion?

Cause Alexa and Siri can. And they’ve been around for years.

Lol, I don’t know man. All I saw was what was demonstrated the presentation. Apparently I am one of the few who watched more than 60 seconds of it. Maybe ask the robot from Boston dynamics.

I’ll ask the Boston Dynamics robot if I can catch up to it while it does Parkour. But I’m 47 and it’s more agile than me.

If Optimus was sentient, I could ask it…since it wobbles at the speed of a drunk toddler. It would be easy to catch up to.

Lol. That’s accurate. A toddler could definitely outrun that thing as it is presently. I think they’re supposed to have a max speed of 5 mph.

Yet another thing that Optimus can’t do.

> “perform useful tasks in less than a year”

Says who? Elon? The guy who lies constantly and never delivers?

You think it can water plants but can’t pick up a beer?Am I think one who actually watched more than 3 minutes of the presentation?
