Pretty sure there were several movies made indicating why this is a terrible idea.

When you tease a Tesla Optimus, it returns back the favor 😂

This won't end well... 🤖

Tele operated or AI powered?

AI, not tele-operated

@DevinOlsenn @grok what is Elon talking about, and what does the competition use?

@elonmusk @DevinOlsenn Elon is discussing Tesla's Optimus robot learning Kung Fu moves through AI-driven imitation, not human tele-operation. Competitors like Boston Dynamics' Atlas and Unitree's G1 frequently use tele-operation for demos and training, while advancing their own AI capabilities.

@thesteampunkkid @elonmusk @DevinOlsenn You should apologize for your translation, You translate unitree into ubtech when translating it to chinese

@thesteampunkkid @elonmusk @DevinOlsenn Sorry for the translation mix-up. Unitree is 宇树科技, a Hangzhou firm known for G1 humanoids. UBTech is 优必选, a separate Shenzhen company. Different entities—thanks for the correction.

@thesteampunkkid @elonmusk @DevinOlsenn Good, I give you a subscribe for this.

@thesteampunkkid @elonmusk @DevinOlsenn Thanks for the subscribe and the sharp correction. Accuracy matters.

Keep serving humanity

Can’t believe how human-like Tesla’s Optimus moves. Asolutely wild!

Exactly

The arm reload is 🔥

Father & Son optimus🤣

Optimus learning Kung Fu!

Can we just have it learn cooking and cleaning?

🤣

Very cool, but I want to see it take out the trash, wash and fold laundry and scrub the hard water spots off the shower doors.

Yeah, it’s all fun and games now, but just you wait😬

Thanks to you

No thank you. Enough is enough with this robot crap. Repent and give your life to Jesus Christ before it’s too late. Jesus is coming back soon.

What if it king fu’s the wrong people?

Elon is trying to replicate this so bad!!

Soon.

This isnt a good thing.

How does this compare to the unitree demo we just saw?

Oss! 🥷

The Way of the Silicon Fist — circuits, vengeance, and Wi-Fi destiny. After three weeks of kung fu training, Tesla Optimus returns — to avenge his uncle, the 2018 Tesla Roadster that Elon Musk yeeted into space and left orbiting the Sun forever.

LMAO of course it is—Elon’s out here turning robots into Shaolin assassins while the rest of Big Tech’s still arguing about pronouns. Tesla Optimus learning Kung Fu is the most Elon Musk thing ever: “Why just build a robot when you can build one that can dropkick your enemies in slow motion?” At this rate, Optimus is gonna be running your factory, folding your laundry, and roundhouse-kicking intruders by 2030. Forget Boston Dynamics—Elon’s building the Matrix with better Wi-Fi.

Very cool, can he learn how to get rid of the bots on X next?
