Golden chassis and contextual understanding in Tesla’s new generation

Tesla introduced a new humanoid robot Optimus with integrated Grok from xAI. Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff personally tested the prototype, asking it to bring a soda. The robot demonstrated meaningful contextual understanding and dialogue capability. Although several clarifying commands were needed.

Optimus uses Grok language model for natural communication. The robot doesn’t just execute commands. It explains that it doesn’t have current information about the soda’s location and offers to escort the guest to the kitchen. This is already a level of contextual understanding unavailable to previous generations.

Visual changes also indicate serious evolution. A new golden chassis replaced previous light tones. Hand mechanics were completely redesigned. Open joints are hidden, actuators moved to forearms, finger control through cables. Musk emphasizes similarity to human anatomy.

Elon Musk also predicts that new Optimus robots will comprise 80% of Tesla’s revenue. This is his business strategy. The company wants to create not just a robot, but a universal AI assistant. Capable of understanding and executing complex tasks in the real world.
