Elon Musk hits back at critics with impressive new Tesla Bot video
Optimus, as it's also known as, has clearly learned some new tricks.
If you were fascinated by Boston Dynamics' agile dog robots when they made their debut, you're probably going to want to get a look at what Tesla (TSLA) - Get Free Report has in store in the robotics department.
In a new post on X via its Tesla Optimus account, the company posted a video of its Gen 2 Optimus robot captioned. "There's a new bot in town. Check this out (until the very end)!"

The video shows the Gen 2 robot going through a series of impressively human-like motions, including examining its newly faster 11-DoF hands, showing off its new improved balance by doing squats, and showing off tactile sensing by handling an egg with its forefinger and thumb.
More specifically, the new advancements are a 2-DoF actuated neck, actuators-integrated electronics and harnessing, a 30% walk speed boost, foot force and torque sensing, articulated toe sections, human foot geometry, and a 10kg total weight reduction overall.
