Episode Details

I react to Elon Musk’s comments about Tesla Optimus robot and robotaxi progress from the flashy Tesla We, Robot event held recently at Warner Bros Studios in Los Angeles. We look closely at Optimus interactions with the party guests, and take a first ride in a Cybercab. Do Elon’s remarks amount to more “corporate puffery” and extreme optimism, or are they based in reality?
