Elon Musk, the mind behind Tesla, is talking about something big – a billion AI-powered humanoid robots roaming the Earth by the 2040s! According to FoxBusiness, it is a vision shared by Musk and other experts in the field. For Oceania, this could be a stretch, but we could potentially benefit from this forecast if we learn how to harness its possibilities and lay a strong foundation of tech infrastructure in the 20 or more years it might take to realize this prediction. Tesla cars are slowly making their way into the region, and these robots may not be too far behind!
The ‘Tesla Optimus’: a humanoid robot prototype
Imagine robots not just in sci-fi movies but being a part of our everyday lives. Musk believes in the potential of Optimus to be more impactful than Tesla’s cars. With a price tag of USD 20,000 per unit (around the average price of a small car in the region), Musk is eager to refine and introduce millions of Optimus robots to the global market within the next three to five years.
Small Island states stand to gain a lot from this prediction. With AI humanoid robots gradually introduced into the Pacific Island’s workforce, we could potentially optimize the industrial production of goods and services which could propel the region’s economies to unprecedented heights. Microscopically, AI humanoids could improve the quality of life in households if they can be programmed to manage household tasks and provide analyses and solutions to any other personal issues.
