“It defies the imagination. One chip, one chip that Tesla has developed in recent history here could take the place of pretty much any major computer that might’ve been hanging around in the early 2000’s. These advancements are things that will save lives.”
This is what serious business analysts were saying about Tesla’s Dojo project - an advanced AI supercomputer that would run Tesla’s full self-driving and Optimus (bots) technology. It would have Tesla-designed chips that are better than anything out there. Morgan Stanley valued Dojo alone at ~$200 billion (Toyota’s market cap is ~$250 billion). Dojo was very quietly cancelled a couple of months ago, everyone was fired. Serious analysts didn’t care, they just slapped a $200 billion higher valuation on Optimus instead and called it a day. Elon said a couple of months ago that Optimus bots are no longer being remotely operated. Nothing matters.

welp somebody doesn’t know how their phone works
One chip, one chip that Tesla has developed in recent history here could take the place of pretty much any major computer that might’ve been hanging around in the early 2000’s.
Someone with a few thousand dollars for materials and the right machinery can manufacture chips that would have been high-end in the 80s in their garage. Chips comparably powerful to ones that would have cost thousands in the early 2000s can be had for like $30 now. Tesla being able to manufacturer cheap old chips wouldn’t be impressive even if it were true, which as you put out it’s not even true.
According to natopedia, the fastest computer in the world in 2000 was ASCI White at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, which could do 4.93 teraflops at the time.
I recently got an RX 9060 XT, a midrange graphics card. It can do 25.64 teraflops.
Tesla and the AI companies are on full fraud mode right now.
Heeyyy…that looks just like a person taking off their VR headset
I know, right?! Optimus is getting so advanced and lifelike!
bleak to consider there are people who consider this a purposeful move on Elon’s part. what an epic troll job it must be for them
If it’s any consolation, those people don’t have the money to spend on this bullshit, because they already spent it all buying Cybertrucks.
I’m just here, waiting for the day that Tesla finally implodes.
That clip is so fucking funny. How is Tesla valued at what it is.

Used to be they sold carbon credits they got from the government, but that program’s being cancelled so now they need to find another cash cow.
Yeah. It’s actually pretty transparent what their strategy is. Pivot from car company to ai company, ai to robotics. Going to Mars probably fits in somewhere too. It’s just wild people fall for this grift. Musk truly is the conman of all time or people are just that brain broken from capitalism. But I don’t think they’ll find that cash cow but what do I know lol.
for real who is looking at tesla in 2025 and seeing the future of anything
Meanwhile, China’s making decently priced kei vans that are more luxury than what the Krauts are making
The guy being paid $7.25 an hour to remotely pilot the bazinga bot walked off the job.
$7.25? Probably less in a country with a lower/no minimum wage
They’re so gonna make these things into cops.
Good they’ll be easy to push over.
If they’re piloted by humans you can disorient them pretty easily at least
At least some random Indian dude piloting them will probably be less inclined to shoot everyone than US cops.
We already know these robots are dumb and useless and they’ve been remote controlling them since the first day when they announced the stupid Tesla robo taxies and that stupid Tesla bus that can’t drive over a tiny speed bump…
| The video shows Optimus performing tasks such as handing out bottled water, posing for photos, and dancing for attendees.
Elon to the remote operator: “Okay, now do the ‘jerking two dicks’ dance move like your government subsidized paycheck depends on it!”
Mf mood

Ok so what if they did train an algorithm based on remote control operation of the same bot and the headset pull just became part of the data; a reaction to “oops I fucked up and am going to be sick”.
I would find that equally funny.
when someone says something so hawktimus you gotta hit em with the tesluah stare
Lukewarm prediction: robot slaves remotely puppetted by human slaves so we can all feel smug and comfy about how far we’ve progressed since the bad old days.
I can’t wait to learn that like 98% of “AI” was just mechanical turks
It’s like the Robocop 2 prototypes
