At a recent event at TCL Theater in Los Angeles, Optimus was showcased wearing a Tronesque glowing suit, making a notable appearance that complemented the AI and movie-themed branding. Although the robot did not appear in the recent film, the promotional event provided excellent exposure, hinting at Tesla's strategic push to position Optimus as a key tech product.
Notably, the current version seen in these videos is Optimus Version 2 or 2.5, with Tesla intensively safeguarding details about Version 3, which promises more advanced capabilities. The focus emphasizes manufacturing at scale, with Elon Musk highlighting that what will truly make or break Optimus is the ability to mass-produce efficiently.
