Honestly the stakes are a lot lower for a humanoid robot IMO. There's a lot of risk around releasing FSD cars on public roads as opposed to testing out robots in a factory / controlled environment.
I'm actually really excited about the current state of robotics, and wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being the most impactful outcome of the most recent AI developments over the next 10-15 years.
I know there's a lot of hate for Elon Musk / Tesla, but at the end of the day he's just the money guy for some really great researchers out there.
This argument never makes sense as it's pure circular reasoning. He's had no money to invest in anything without taking from some of his companies (which is what happened to Twitter). You can't invest in Tesla with money from Tesla.
This reads like they haven't already taken that risk with fatal consequences.
Not seeing how a robot, literally marketed as being powered by the FSD computer, could actually work unless the underlying FSD system actually works. Which it doesn't.
I'm not sure about their marketing claims, but the robot in this video doesn't have wheels and isn't going 80mph on an interstate. Maybe the cars and this robot are using similar sensors, but I doubt there's a ton of overlap between the underlying system and the directions it gives. AGI doesn't exist yet
