  Good on Tesla, this event should be ignored. Who the fuck think a humanoid robot, with humanoid joints is a good idea? I've seen demo CGIs where humanoid robot typed on a keyboard. Nice. I'd rather my robot use an USB port. Humanoid robot are a dumb idea. At least Boston dynamics focus on its dog

    They didn't ignore it, they sent their dumb robot.

      Then they're even dumber than I thought they were. I think they stopped being engineer-led in 2013, so i guess that's to be expected.

  Jalopnik and their Tesla negativity is getting tiring for me as a reader who is not fond at all of Musk.

  Wrong. Optimus stoically raw-dogged the trade show rather than showing off. It demonstrated a level of parity with humans, especially tech bros that the competition will envy and try to emulate.
