In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Tesla founder Elon Musk says that the electric automaker will be producing humanoid robots for internal use next year, adding that they will "hopefully" be able to sell them to other companies by 2026.
The robot, known as Optimus, was first demonstrated publicly in 2022 and was able to walk on-stage. It weighs 56 kilograms (123 pounds) and is 170 centimeters tall (five foot and seven inches).
