Quick Glance: Tesla aims to potentially launch its humanoid robot Optimus next year, Elon Musk suggests

Elon Musk hinted at the possibility of Tesla introducing its humanoid robot Optimus to the market next year. The company plans to deploy the robot in its own factory by the year's end.

Not long ago, Tesla revealed “Optimus Gen 2”, a new iteration of its humanoid robot designed to assume repetitive human tasks.

Tesla's confidence in achieving this stems from its utilization of AI technologies in the self-driving vehicle sector and its proficiency in battery and electric motor innovations. The notion that its vehicles are essentially robots on wheels was posited.

Envisioning a future where households incorporate a Tesla Optimus robot that assumes various manufacturing and service roles, the CEO's perspective is clear.

Quick Glance: Google Fires More Employees Following Israel Deal Protests

An activist group has reported that Google has terminated at least 20 more employees in response to protests over the technology supplied to the Israeli government amid the Gaza conflict, bringing the total number of dismissed employees to over 50.

This serves as another indication of internal unrest at the tech giant, revolving around 'Project Nimbus,' a $1.2 billion contract signed in 2021 for Google and Amazon to provide cloud computing and AI services to the Israeli government.

Last week, demonstrations were held by employees at Google offices in New York and Sunnyvale, California, resulting in the company contacting law enforcement, leading to subsequent arrests.

According to Google, the additional terminations were carried out after an investigation gathered information from colleagues who were 'physically disrupted,' and employees were identified who wore masks and did not carry their ID badges to conceal their identities. The company refuted the group's allegations, asserting that it meticulously verified that 'each individual whose employment was terminated was personally and conclusively involved in disruptive activities within our premises.'
