What do you think of tech like this? Elon Musk announced plans for Tesla to produce up to 1 million humanoid robots, known as Optimus, by 2027.
2025: Tesla aims to begin mass production, targeting 5,000 units.
2026: Production is expected to increase to 50,000 to 100,000 units.
2027: The goal is to reach 500,000 to 1 million units.
The Optimus robot is designed to perform tasks that are repetitive, dangerous, or undesirable for humans. Demonstrations have showcased its ability to walk, sort objects by color, and perform basic household tasks.
I think we need to develop a wise approach to the discussion around tech. One that isn't entirely optimistic but also not entirely pessimistic - one that is wiser. Something that can embrace the value of technology and nature, and view them in a manner where they can be in balance and whole. This will require a conscious and wise stewarding of tech.
