    What the fuck do you mean “autonomously”?

    Like nobody gave it instructions, but its putting cars together anyway?

      The article quoted the tweet as saying, "Deployed two Optimus bots performing tasks in the factory autonomously.”

      That could mean assembling cars, or maybe standing in one spot and “don’t get in the way”.

      I’ll believe this when I see it.

        That’s about as impressive as already existing assembly line robots. It’s probably just some pre programmed behavior. Otherwise they would’ve already showcased something live.
