Part 2/9:
Scott emphasizes the importance of understanding the timelines associated with Tesla's Optimus project. According to him, while full consumer-ready robots might still be a decade away, practical robots capable of operating in factory settings could be deployed much sooner. In fact, he believes that Tesla might be able to deploy thousands of them by next year. This swift integration of robotics into Tesla’s production could lead to significant improvements in operational margins by replacing a considerable number of human workers, thereby reducing production costs.
