Part 9/12:
Looking ahead, Tesla aims to reduce operating costs further through automation, particularly with the rollout of Optimus robots and the "unboxed" manufacturing process. The goal is a lights-out factory—completely automated with minimal human intervention. Innovations in design, such as creating cars that are easier for robots to assemble, are already underway, promising significant efficiency gains.
The company’s emphasis on "more with less" is a hallmark of Elon Musk’s leadership and strategic philosophy. In comparison, other tech-driven space ventures like SpaceX and Blue Origin demonstrate that aggressive innovation can often occur with relatively modest funding when combined with relentless focus and operational excellence.
