Part 3/8:
In another development, Tesla has accused a former engineer from its Optimus program, Jay Lee, of stealing trade secrets relating to advanced robotic hand technology. Lee left Tesla in early 2024 and formed his own company within a week, which soon claimed to have developed humanoid robotic hands resembling Tesla's designs. This raises serious questions concerning intellectual property and potential theft in the fast-evolving field of robotics. Observers note that tech theft cases are common in competitive industries, but the extent of damage caused can be far-reaching, impacting business and innovation.
