Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced that the electric carmaker is now branching out and working on a humanoid “Tesla bot”
Musk made the announcement at the company’s AI Day event, which Tesla holds in an effort to recruit “the best AI talent,” Musk has previously said.
The mega-billionaire tech entrepreneur said a prototype of the 5 ft. 8 in., 125-pound robot could be ready as soon as next year.
“It’s basically going to start dealing with work that is boring, repetitive and dangerous,” Musk said at the event beside an actor in a skintight body suit designed to look like the Tesla robot.
