Tesla Engineer Admits Optimus Robots Were 'Human Assisted To Some Extent' At Robotaxi Unveiling Event
"We had about 20 active bots at all times – walking through a packed crowd, dancing, taking selfies, or even pouring drinks and handing out snacks," Optimus engineer Kovac said. The robots, he said, were "human-assisted to some extent" to showcase the company's vision.Tesla Inc's (NASDAQ:TSLA) humanoid robot Optimus was human-assisted "to some extent" at the 'We, Robot' event last week, company engineer Milan Kovac said on Wednesday.
特斯拉公司（納斯達克：TSLA）的機器人奧普蒂瑪在上週的「我們，機器人」活動中在一定程度上得到了工作人員的協助，該公司工程師米蘭·科瓦茨週三表示。
What Happened: The "We, Robot" event was held by Tesla on Oct. 10 at Warner Bros. Discovery Inc.'s movie studio near Los Angeles. The company unveiled its dedicated two-seater robotaxi product, nicknamed the Cybercab, complete with butterfly wings that open upwards in addition to a Robovan that can accommodate up to 20 people.
事件詳情：特斯拉於10月10日在華納兄弟發現公司位於洛杉磯附近的電影工作室舉辦了「我們，機器人」活動。該公司發佈了專用的雙座機器人出租車產品，暱稱爲賽博出租車，配備可以向上打開的蝴蝶翅膀，另外還有一個Robovan可容納多達20人。
The event also had the company's humanoid robots interacting with the guests at the event.
該活動還邀請了該公司的人形機器人與活動的客人進行互動。
"We had about 20 active bots at all times – walking through a packed crowd, dancing, taking selfies, or even pouring drinks and handing out snacks," Optimus engineer Kovac said. The robots, he said, were "human-assisted to some extent" to showcase the company's vision.
Optimus工程師科瓦茨表示：「我們時刻有大約20台活躍的機器人-在擁擠的人群中行走，跳舞，自拍，甚至倒酒和分發零食。」他說，這些機器人在一定程度上得到了工作人員的協助以展示公司的願景。
One of the robots also fell down after someone's handbag caught its hand, Kovac said, implying that Tesla still has some way to go before the robots are perfect in its operations.
科瓦茨說，其中一臺機器人在有人的手袋卡住它的手後摔倒了，這表明特斯拉在機器人運作方面仍有一段路要走。
The company, however, made significant improvements in Optimus' hardware stability and infrastructure to operate the robots in a public outdoor environment, the engineer noted.
工程師指出，公司在優化奧普蒂瑪的硬件穩定性和製造行業基礎設施方面取得了顯著進展，以在公共戶外環境中操作這些機器人。
Very proud of and grateful for the team's hard work leading to our 10/10 event last week. So excited to give many people a live feel of our progress with Optimus and its expected future capabilities!

Tesla did not immediately respond to Benzinga's request for a statement.
特斯拉並未立即回應彭博社對其發言的請求。
Why It Matters: During Tesla's annual shareholder meeting in June, Musk said that there will be at least one humanoid robot for every person in the world in the future, implying a total humanoid robot population of at least 10 billion or more, of which the EV company will have a significant share.
這很重要：在特斯拉的年度股東大會上，馬斯克表示，未來每個人都將擁有至少一臺人形機器人，意味着總共將會有至少1000億台人形機器人，其中特斯拉將佔據相當大的份額。
"While autonomous vehicle is a $5-$7 trillion market cap situation, Optimus is a $25 trillion market cap situation," Musk then said.
"雖然自動駕駛汽車是一種市值爲5-7萬億美元的局面，但Optimus是一種市值爲25萬億美元的局面，" 馬斯克隨後說道。
Musk expects to be able to sell Optimus at $10,000 or $20,000, at a lower price point than Tesla's cheapest Model 3 sedan, once it reaches high-volume production.
一旦 Optimus 達到高產能，馬斯克預計能夠以 10,000 或 20,000 美元的低價格銷售機器人，價格低於特斯拉最便宜的 Model 3轎車。
In July, the CEO also said that the EV company would have "genuinely useful" humanoid robots in low production for use within its factories next year. The company will "hopefully" increase production for other customers in 2026, he said.
7月份，這位CEO還表示，電動車公司將在明年爲其工廠內使用的「真正有用」的人形機器人進行低產量生產。他表示公司將「希望」在2026年爲其他客戶增加生產。
