Tesla's Optimus Robot on Display in Beijing, as Tesla’s Optimus Remains Idle

At the World Robot Conference in Beijing, Chinese companies showcased a variety of humanlike robots, demonstrating their progress in robotics with robots performing tasks like playing musical instruments and completing physical tasks. Meanwhile, Tesla's Optimus humanoid robot was displayed in a static state. Musk claims Tesla's Optimus robot could eventually perform household tasks and contribute to a $25 trillion valuation, with factory tests planned next year, though its current capabilities remain uncertain. Although China’s robotics industry has seen significant investment, U.S. companies remain ahead in development. Challenges like limited battery life still hinder the full autonomy of these robots.
