Ultimately, Tesla would like for its Optimus humanoid robot to help build cars. It can’t do that just yet, but Elon Musk has shared a new video of the robot impressively folding clothes.

One recent event I am referring to is a video shared by Tesla CEO Elon Musk on X over the weekend that appeared to show the company’s robot “Optimus” (like the Transformer) folding a shirt.

Elon Musk's Optimus humanoid robot from Tesla is doing more stuff -- this time folding a t-shirt on a table in a development facility. The robot looks to be fairly competent when it comes to this ...

Elon Musk admitted that a video showing his Tesla robot folding a shirt was not happening "autonomously," without explaining how it was done.
