I can’t wait. I’m going to pre order the full no killing package. He says it will be released soon.
My mama got the Full No-Killing package. Thank goodness; she’s only half dead.
Who is buying Nazi robots for their house? I can’t think of a more intrusive spying machine than one of these shitty things that will never meet the empty and irresponsible promises Elon can give. Remember when he promised the world that his cars would self-drive and do it safely? How’d that turn out?
It could be him shifting the target demographic and trying to pivot into the military robotics? If those Boston Dynamic humanoid robots from a few years ago are still being improved upon (with how impressive they were even 5 years ago), and how AI/ML is improving significantly, it could be the first major leaps to a Terminator-type future.
But less likely Skynet and more likely ultra-rich oligarchs sending waves of terminators to defend their Freedom Cities they want to build in Greenland.
Nazis deserve a punch in the face, not money.
Boycott Tesla and Nazi led companies. Do not buy their products, do not buy their stock. Ensure any investment funds you have are free of Nazis.
LOL no one is buying those robots.
Apparently companies don’t need to sell or do useful products or services any more. They just sell investments.
Pyramid schemes work like that. And they’re very popular right now.
So… How much longer until the bottom falls out? Surely investment firms can’t keep owning shares for companies that don’t turn a profit right? It’s not like anyone would want to end up holding the bag. Tesla’s been defying all logic and reasoning these past few years.
A bunch of companies are going to buy them to curry favor, but they’ll never work as advertised and get forgotten pretty quickly.
So like nearly every other existing robot on the market, from your home Roomba up to those restaurant delivery robots. Not really anything new here in either direction.
I’m getting strong vibes of AI companies buying up 70% of next year’s world RAM production for their future data centers that might never exist.
Have they even figured out a use for these robots that would justify theit cost yet, other than as fancy remote controlled puppets that simulate an independently functioning robot to manipulate investors?
I’m calling it. It’s going to be another Cybertruck fiasco. There will be a handful of early adopters who will buy them with a huge markup and then the reality that the product absolutely fails to deliver on most of its promises will slowly spread, leaving them with a huge unsold inventory.
If these robots actually function well: fascists with robots at scale is really not the timeline you want.
If.

Control of the masses, eg protests
And it starts. Tesla was held up by smoke and mirrors, and now that we all know it, and him, it’s all coming apart. Nobody wants his terrible cars, anywhere in the world, and now that he has DOGEd all the investigations into his negligent manufacturing practices, they aren’t even safe.
Now he’s killing two product lines. Tesla will be bankrupt in 2 years.
I’d agree, but the stock price is up after hours. I’ve never seen a more irrational stock
X and Y were only 3% of their sales combined according to the article. Discontinuing them makes financial sense.
Day to day doesn’t matter. Sales are crashing every month, there is no end in sight, and no reason to believe that there is anything he can do to turn it around. As each earnings report comes on, they’ll sink lower and lower.
The only reason they haven’t crashed already is because they are in so many institutional investment accounts. As they slip lower and lower, eventually they’ll abandon ship, and it will all be over.
Arnt these the robots that they needed a team of engineers to get it to do a simple task and it failed to repeat the task on it own?
Tesla for years sold cars that ‘will become full self driving later’. ‘When you’re at work, you can send your car out as a taxi and it will earn money for you.’
hush… let Felon prepare his next scam in peace!
Snake oil
I thought the whole premise of the robots was that Tesla would be their own biggest customer; optimus would be building cars for essentially free. Like how Starlink is SpaceX’s biggest customer. I mean, I know it’s a fantasy but at least it makes sense on paper. Building robots instead of cars makes zero sense even on paper
From S3XY to Y3.
So… Kanye?
Did anyone else totally misread the headline? For a moment I thought it said, “Optimus Prime.” To be fair, I’ve never heard of this robot project. I’m ready to expect almost anything from absurd billionaires these days.
I was Hasbro to file a lawsuit, it would be so fucking funny.
Bold strategy folding the luxury car models. Must not be selling because the market that can afford it doesn’t like something about it. Curious.
The lower price models and home batteries are probably keeping Tesla solvent.
… for now.
Or maybe they just aren’t selling and he needed an excuse as so why they will stop producing them.
