The unexpected reveal came at the end of Tesla's AI Day presentation, with Musk providing few details about the Slenderman-like Tesla Bot outside of a few PowerPoint slides. The 5-foot-8 robot will weigh in at 125 pounds and be built from "lightweight materials," (Musk) said.
Its head will be kitted out with the autopilot cameras used by Tesla's vehicles to sense the environment and will contain a screen to display information. Internally, it will be operating via Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) computer.
One particular slide said the Tesla Bot would eliminate "dangerous, repetitive, boring tasks," and Musk provided an example, suggesting the robot could be told to "go to the store and get ... the following groceries." Not that such a task is particularly dangerous, but you might find it repetitive and boring.
