Me:
Are Elon Musk’s Optimus robots for sale now and how much do they cost?

Meta AI:
The Tesla Optimus robots aren’t available for purchase yet, but Elon Musk has announced plans for the Optimus Gen 3, set to launch in 2026. The expected price range for this model is between $15,000 and $18,000, making it significantly more affordable than its competitors, such as Boston Dynamics’ Atlas robot, which costs over $120,000.
Key Features of Optimus Gen 3:
Walking Speed: 10-12 km/h, faster than previous models
Payload Capacity: 20 kg, suitable for tasks like lifting bags or small furniture
Battery Life: 10-12 hours, providing all-day support without frequent recharges
AI Integration: 99.7% facial recognition accuracy and robust voice command understanding
Hand Dexterity: Highly sensitive fingertip sensors for precision handling
The Optimus Gen 3 is designed to assist people with disabilities, providing independent mobility support, real-time assistance, and precise handling. It’s also expected to integrate seamlessly with Tesla’s ecosystem, including electric cars and solar systems ¹.

Me: Will the Optimus Gen 3 have AI?
Meta AI:
The Tesla Optimus Gen 3 will indeed feature advanced AI capabilities. Here are some key aspects of its AI integration ¹ ²:
Grok Voice: This AI-powered natural language assistant enables Optimus to understand context, support multiple languages, and adapt to noisy environments, allowing for natural conversations.
AI-driven neural networks: Optimus combines teleoperation, hardcoding, and AI-driven neural networks to perform tasks traditionally handled by humans, emphasizing adaptability, precision, and autonomy.
Sim-to-Real training: Tesla uses this method to train Optimus, where the robot learns by watching humans in simulation environments and then applies that learning to real-world situations.
Visual AI mapping: Optimus uses cameras, depth sensors, and visual AI mapping to create a 3D layout of its surroundings, avoid obstacles, and adapt to changes in real time.
These AI features will enable Optimus Gen 3 to perform various tasks, such as:
Household chores: cleaning, cooking, folding laundry, and serving drinks
Industrial tasks: carrying items, assisting with assembly, performing inspections, and handling logistics and inventory tasks
Assistance: providing voice-guided help, showing visual instructions, and acting as a patient companion, making it ideal for elderly or tech-challenged users ¹
