Elon Musk has shown off progress on his Terminator-like Tesla Bot. The humanoid Optimus robot was showcased walking and performing basic tasks. The tech company say they now have "multiple fully Tesla-made bots now walking around and learning about the real world." The robots have been seen strolling around office and factory environments, as well as picking up and moving objects.

Tesla claimed to have a great opportunity to develop this humanoid robot because it could leverage a lot of existing hardware developed for its electric vehicles and software from its self-driving technology. But it wasn’t clear how much effort was put into the project even though Musk claimed it became a top priority at Tesla early last year.

The company also had another more refined-looking prototype, but it wasn’t even able to walk in time for the presentation.
