I don’t get why people are optimistic about an EXTREMELY early prototype from a company that has made outlandish promises about products in multiple industries (cybertruck, boring co, self driving ai) that it has repeatedly failed to meet deadlines/promises with. The easy part is making a convention prototype that just walks around in a controlled environment. It is so far from anything worth being optimistic about, especially compared to other industry leaders, in addition to coming from a company that has historically been disingenuous at best about multiple industries. “But it’s only after a year!” Yeah most companies work on things internally for many years before going public, it’s incredibly naive to imagine this presentation was anything but a ploy for investment given the current state of the product vs the promised end use.

I don’t understand your prejudice but I guess it makes sense considering you don’t seem to be very knowledgeable on the subject, tbh idc what Elon says I’m looking at it and taking it in for what it is not what Elon says it will be. The prototype isn’t very special but the underlying technology is very interesting and because of this underlying tech this robot has a lot of future application of the robot is continued to be developed. Can you tell me what industry leaders you’re talking about?
