Elon Musk unveils Tesla robot that would do hard work for humans

By Josh K. Elliott  


“A billionaire inventor plans to build a line of artificially intelligent robots that could replace humans as physical labourers in the future.


What could go wrong?


Elon Musk announced on Thursday that he’s working on a humanoid robot at Tesla, which he said could have a “profound” impact on the economy in the future.


“It’s basically going to start dealing with work that is boring, repetitive and dangerous,” Musk said at Tesla’s AI Day event on Thursday night.


The so-called Tesla Bot will stand five feet eight inches, weigh 125 pounds, and move at roughly eight kilometres per hour, which is the equivalent of a brisk walk. Each one will be capable of lifting up to 45 pounds, and will feature a display screen in place of its face — if Musk can make it a reality.


He added that the robot would be meant for doing jobs that people “least like to do,” and that physical labour would eventually become a “choice” for humans.”

UFO DISC PHOTO TAKEN FROM VANCOUVER ISLAND CANADA

THE MCROBERTS VANCOUVER ISLAND UFO PHOTOGRAPH, OCTOBER 1981 “Perhaps one of the most fascinating, not least due to the photographic evidence, is the Vancouver Island picture (which is one of the locations in our previously mentioned 1954 IFF code incident). On this particular evening, at a little after 6 pm in early October 1981, Hannah McRoberts was on vacation on Vancouver Island. During this time, she would take multiple pictures of the mountain ranges and woodlands. According to McRoberts, one specific picture she took she noticed a strange cloud around the top of the mountain similar to a “volcano issuing steam”. The rest of the group she was with didn’t see anything unusual and so she simply forgot the incident. That was until she had the photographs developed several weeks later. When she focused in on the strange cloud her attention immediately went to the right of it. There, was an apparent solid, circular object. You can view that picture below. The picture soon came to the a

Stadium-sized asteroid to whizz past Earth on July 24, Nasa puts it in dangerous category

Image
 The orbit of 2008Go20, which is close to Earth, has been classified as Apollo, that holds the most dangerous asteroids. A huge asteroid, about the size of a stadium, is hurtling towards Earth at a very high speed. Named '2008Go20', the asteroid will whizz past Earth on July 24. The asteroid is cruising at over 8 kilometres per second, which is around 28,800 km/hour, a speed so high that anything coming in its way will suffer extreme catastrophe. The near-Earth object (NEO) is 20 meters wide and will be zooming by at a distance of 28,70,847,607 km, eight times the distance between Earth and the Moon. While the asteroid will safely move past Earth, its orbit close to the planet has been classified as Apollo, which holds the most dangerous asteroids. Nasa is continuously monitoring the object. Earlier in June, 2021KT1, an asteroid the size of the Eiffel Tower came close to the planet. Classified as "potentially hazardous", 2021KT1 made a close approach to Earth at a dis

UFO DISC WITNESSED NEAR LAKEWOOD NAVAL BASE IN N.J. 12-22-15

ALIEN DISC WITNESSED NEAR LAKEWOOD NAVAL BASE IN N.J. JUNE 1963 ……….. LAKEWOOD NEW JERSEY “I was about 12 or 13 years old. It was daytime and I was doing someones hair in the living room near the front door of the house. I heard a loud humming and fluctuating sound coming from outside. I went out to see what it was. I stood out in the middle of my front yard looking up. Trees obstructed my view until the craft slowly moved into view right above the tree top. It then stopped over me. I felt paralyzed, maybe because I was shocked. I know I was thinking, pay attention to everything you see so you don’t miss any detail and can remember what you are seeing. The craft was shaped like a disc, but it tapered in the back to a point. It was a little more round at the top and flatter(but not flat) underneath, like a disc. It had 3 elongated lights around the front, but were spaced . I saw none in the back. It was about 30-40 feet in diameter. After a few moments, it moved slowly over me and th
