The message and the image seem to be a reaction to the recent presentation of Tesla’s Robotaxi/Cybercab made by its CEO, Elon Musk, on Oct. 10. This event was called “We, Robot…” referring to a movie starring Will Smith based on Isaac Asimov’s sci-fi stories.
It seems to be a bullish reaction to the recent event staged by Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) boss Elon Musk. Musk presented unsupervised self-driving Cybertrucks that are going to be used as taxis. Musk gave a speech, in which he criticized the modern transportation system, which seems inefficient because of high traffic and other issues.
Robotaxis/Cybercabs do not have a steering wheel or pedals, and they do not require any control from passengers whatsoever. Earlier, Musk stated that users would be able to allow their Tesla cars to be used as taxis since, on average, a car is not used that frequently per week.
Aside from Cybercabs, the guests of the event also witnessed the appearance of Tesla-made androids called Tesla Optimus (“autonomous assistant, humanoid friend”). One of them even worked as a bartender, making cocktails and dressed correspondingly, also wearing a fedora hat and letting clients take a selfie with it. The robot showed a peace sign with his fingers while photos were taken.
