Elon Musk Says Tesla Aims to Develop AGI Using Humanoid Robots and Advanced ManufacturingPreviousNext

Elon Musk stated that Tesla aims to be among the first companies to develop artificial general intelligence (AGI), potentially through its Optimus humanoid robot and precise 'atom-shaping' manufacturing systems. Musk envisions AGI embodied in physical robots capable of manipulating the real world. This places Tesla alongside firms like OpenAI and DeepMind competing in AGI development, though experts note AGI remains a future possibility with varying timelines proposed by industry leaders.
