In the past years, Elon Musk has expressed that he fears the future of artificial intelligence systems. He even took a step further and said that states should intervene in this issue and that only organizations and individuals with special permission should work on such advanced systems. But when it comes to his senses, he seems to have stretched his fearful limits a little.
The new technology that will take place in Tesla vehicles has been announced!
Electric car giant Tesla will use a new technology in its vehicles. The technology he patented excites users.
Elon Musk will transfer human minds to robots next year!
Musk answered questions from the press in an interview at Tesla’s factory in Fremont California. He also talked about potential future uses of Optimus, a humanoid robot the company made.
Musk, who is also the CEO of Tesla, announced that Optimus will be a general purpose, a kind of worker droid. He said the initial role of these robots—Terminators—should be repetitive, boring, and dangerous jobs—things that humans avoid.
When asked by journalists whether we will be able to see Optimus helping us in our homes, as in the movies, Musk suggested that it will generally have a humanoid shape, that is, a structure that we will not find strange when we encounter it in our daily lives.
In addition, Elon Musk said that people may one day load some or all of their brain capacity into Optimus. He even expressed it in these words:
Optimus is a general purpose, type of worker droid. The initial role should be in a repetitive, boring or dangerous job. Basically, jobs that people don’t want to do. We can load into this device what we believe makes us unique.
Now of course, if you’re no longer in that size, that will definitely make a difference. But as long as we preserve our memories, our personality, I think we can do it.
Humanity designed the world to interact with a bipedal humanoid with two arms and ten fingers. So if you want a robot to adapt and be able to do things that humans can do, it should be roughly the same size, shape, and ability.
Musk said that Tesla will have something pretty good and tangible at the prototype level this year, and that by the end of 2023, he thinks there may be at least moderate volume production, and maybe even versions that can do some work in their own companies.
