Tesla’s humanoid robot is now 30% faster, 22 pounds lighter

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and executive chair of X (formerly Twitter), has revealed a new prototype of Tesla’s humanoid robot, Optimus, which is lighter and faster than previous versions. Musk shared a video presentation of Optimus Gen 2 via his X account on Dec. 13.

Musk has repeatedly called for more regulatory oversight of artificial intelligence (AI), believing it may be “smarter than all humans at everything” in the future.
