Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk on Sunday dismissed an innovation from Japan to bind engineered skin to humanoid robots allowing for it to self-heal like the cyborg in the 1984 sci-fi movie The Terminator.

特斯拉公司CEO埃隆·马斯克周日否认了日本的一项创新,即将人造皮肤绑定到人形机器人上,使它能像1984年科幻电影《终结者》中的半机械人那样自愈。

What Happened: "Pointless," Musk wrote in response to an X user who flagged the innovation from the University of Tokyo. The University said in a statement last month that the innovation, developed by a team led by Professor Shoji Takeuchi, allows for self-healing in robots, among other things.

发生了什么: 针对一位X用户提出的关于东京大学创新的意见,马斯克回复说“毫无意义”。大学上个月在一份声明中表示,由竹内正司教授领导的团队开发的创新可以使机器人自我修复,还有其他功能。

毫无意义

——埃隆·马斯克(@elonmusk)2024年7月7日

Musk's Tesla is already developing a humanoid robot by the name of Optimus which resembles a human with moving hands capable of performing tasks around a factory. The robot, however, has no skin.

马斯克的特斯拉公司已经在研发名为Optimus的人形机器人,它类似于一个有移动手臂的人类,能够在工厂周围执行任务。不过,这个机器人没有皮肤。

Two Optimus bots are currently employed in Tesla's Fremont factory, taking cells off the end of the production line and placing them in containers, Musk confirmed in early June.

据马斯克在6月初确认,特斯拉公司的弗里蒙特工厂目前正在使用两个Optimus机器人,在生产线末端取出细胞并将其放入容器中。

Why It Matters: During Tesla's annual shareholder meeting last month, Musk said that there will be at least one humanoid robot for every person in the world in the future, implying a total humanoid robot population of at least 10 billion or more, of which the EV company will have a significant share.

为什么重要:在特斯拉公司上月的年度股东大会上,马斯克表示,在未来,每个人将拥有至少一个人形机器人,意味着全球人形机器人的总数将达到至少1000亿个或更多,其中电动汽车公司将占据重要的份额。

"While autonomous vehicle is a $5-$7 trillion market cap situation, Optimus is a $25 trillion market cap situation," Musk, who is known to over-hype his company's products, then said. The CEO himself admitted that he is "pathologically optimistic" but delivers in the end.

“虽然自动驾驶汽车是一个市值为5-7万亿美元的情况,但Optimus则是一个市值为25万亿美元的情况,”马斯克(他以夸张公司产品而闻名)提到。首席执行官本人承认,他是“病态乐观”,但最终会交付。

Following a major hardware revision by the end of this year or early next year, Tesla expects to commence limited production of the Optimus to work in its factories and test its capabilities, the CEO added.

在今年年底或明年年初进行重大硬件更新后,特斯拉预计开始有限的Optimus生产,以在其工厂中工作并测试其功能,CEO补充道。

Last week, Musk also considered making a robot resembling TARS from the Christopher Nolan movie Interstellar, in addition to its humanoid robot Optimus.

上周,马斯克还考虑制造一个类似于克里斯托弗·诺兰电影《星际穿越》中的TARS机器人,除了人形机器人Optimus外。

"Maybe Tesla should built it. Would be so cute," Musk wrote on X in response to a video of a functional, walking TARS replica.

“也许特斯拉应该制造这个。它会很可爱,”马斯克在回复一份功能性行走的TARS复制品视频时在X上写道。
