Tesla Aims for 20,000 Optimus Robots a Week
Original: Tesla Wants to Build 20,000 Optimus Robots a Week. First It Has to Figure Out Hands https://gizmodo.com/tesla-wants-to-b
Tesla is targeting production of 20,000 Optimus humanoid robots per week, but a major hurdle remains: the robots' hands. Reports say the company is still working out how to mass-produce reliable, dexterous robotic hands, which are among the hardest components to engineer. The ambitious scale of the target has drawn attention and skepticism about whether Tesla can hit it.
Why now: Elon Musk's huge production target and the admitted unsolved engineering problem around robotic hands make the plan newsworthy.
