Part 4/11:
Following this virtual training, Tesla employs reinforcement learning, allowing Optimus to improve its dance moves through trial and error, guided by feedback mechanisms that reward successful actions. This approach mimics human learning, where repeated practice leads to mastery, but in an accelerated virtual setting.
No Cables, Fully Autonomous Performance
Another noteworthy aspect revealed by Tesla engineers is that Optimus is performing without any physical tether or cables—contrast this with earlier demonstrations where the robot was attached via slack cables for stability. The latest footage demonstrates Tesla's confidence in Optimus's ability to maintain balance and coordination autonomously, in real-time, and with fully learned motions.
