Tesla's Optimus Robot: Dazzling AI or Misleading Showcase?

Tesla's humanoid robot, Optimus, has stirred debate due to its remote operation capabilities. Nonetheless, Nvidia's Robotics Division head, Rev Lebaredian, asserts that Tesla's AI technology should not be underestimated. Even remote control showcases impressive technical prowess.

At last week's Tesla autonomous taxi event, Optimus was a focal point, performing tasks like dancing and pouring drinks, demonstrating intelligence. However, subsequent reports confirmed that Tesla engineers controlled the robot remotely during the demonstration. This revelation led some analysts and investors to criticize Tesla for what they perceived as a misleading display.

Rev Lebaredian, vice president of Nvidia's Omniverse and simulation technology, believes Optimus deserves more recognition rather than reproach. He admits uncertainty about the extent of the remote control but emphasizes that achieving such precision requires highly advanced AI technology.

With 23 years at Nvidia, Lebaredian views Tesla's showcase of Optimus as a significant technical achievement. He acknowledges skepticism as natural for any new technology but stresses the importance of robotic control in real-world interactions as a substantial leap forward.

$NVDA I'll be soaking up some sun and sand in Hawaii, unwinding with a mai tai by the beach 🏖️🏝️, and sporting my Nvidia hat. Who knows, maybe some investors will recognize me and we can chat about the future of the company 😂. Check out my story for more updates on my Hawaiian adventure! https://x.com/danushman/status/1843297065172111536?s=46&t=JATpewscM9uvX6KTBkw7Rg

$TSLA Trump really f'd up the economy, don't you remember? We're still dealing with the 14 trillion in inflation from COVID because Trump, who had no clue about economics, promised it would just vanish like magic. Remember that? His sole job was to warn the elderly, and he failed miserably. Inflation works this way: print money, get inflation; stop printing, inflation stops. It's not like Biden had a choice, but he managed to get inflation under control. Blaming Biden for inflation is like blaming the doctor for the disease because it took time for the medicine to work. #Obama2020 https://x.com/BarackObama/status/1847846978853470646

$NVDA I've bought and sold three times already and am finally happy with my long positions. I'm not boasting, but there's money to be made from this kind of stock. The AI technology is cutting-edge, and they keep innovating. I'm anticipating one more significant drop soon and plan to buy back in for another big payout. This stock is great. Just be patient and ignore the bears; they have no clue. I see a bright future for $NVDA, with a potential market cap of 4 trillion.

$TSLA If the annual earnings really decline by 26%, as expected by analysts, they'll start criticizing it from Monday. By Wednesday night until Thursday morning, the stock will drop accordingly, down to $165 at the open and $160 at the close.

I own 300 shares of $TSLA and have a -2 puts at 232.50. Wednesday is really scaring me. What do you think about this strategy: a. Sell 3 CC at $222.50 for $7.5 b. Buy 5 puts at $212.50 for $4.5 c. Buy 3 calls at $240 for $2 I'm debating between implementing A & B, all ABC, or just selling a few high strike CC and not buying any puts and hoping for the best.

Before long, $NVDA will be up to $200.
