Elon Musk: Tesla Could start rolling out Optimus robots by 2025

Tesla humanoid robot is still in the lab, but it may be ready to sell by 2025, Chief Executive Elon Musk said. Several companies have been betting on humanoid robots to meet potential labour shortages and perform repetitive tasks that could be dangerous or tedious in industries such as logistics, warehousing, retail and manufacturing. Musk told investors on a conference call that he guessed the Tesla robot, Optimus, would be able to perform tasks in the factory by the end of this year.
