Title reads like tall skinny bitches were wearing robot costumes. What they meant to say is that the robots weren’t autonomous.
Didn’t they actually have people in robot costumes previously though?
Yeah, it was a guy they had come out on stage and do a dance in a morph suit and a helmet.
Yes and that was just pathetic
My recollection is it was the “unveiling” before they built it and it was one person in a costume.
🎵 Tesla Optimus! Humans in disguise! 🎵
But it was mostly just a show.
Attendee Robert Scoble posted that he’d learned humans were “remote assisting” the robots
Serious question: Wasn’t it obvious?
There was some hate babbling when that robot taxi company in SanFran published that their autonomous cars were assisted by remote drivers who took over when situations were too complex for the robots.
I think remote support and steering will be the most reliable and practical way those tasks will be handled for the foreseeable future. How much assistance the cars will need may diminish but I don’t think they will ever be able to work without any human assistance.
Sure they will, just put then on rails, make them bigger and available to the public, call it Public AI transport or something

N.R.O.R.A.I.R.T.N.? I think you missed the joke.
I might have.
Oh it spells train, i might be overworked, took a while, lol
Light rAIl transit.
I think you’re cooking here, maybe you can get a government grant to fund this
thats just regular driving with extra steps
Is it still fraud if no one falls for it?
Yes
“Fraud” is any activity that relies on deception in order to achieve a gain. Fraud becomes a crime when it is a “knowing misrepresentation of the truth or concealment of a material fact to induce another to act to his or her detriment” (Black’s Law Dictionary). In other words, if you lie in order to deprive a person or organization of their money or property, you’re committing fraud.
People will still fall for it by treating it like a demonstration of what Elon wants to make, and just an early prototype. The abilities these “robots” displayed are on par with technology that has been available for over 20 years. They don’t realize the parts missing, filled in by human intervention, are the most difficult parts to create and literally cannot be done without a major, generational breakthrough in AI.
in my defense, your honor, i didn’t think anybody would actually fall for it
So less like I, Robot and more like Surrogates.
Less like surrogates and more like The Muppets
The cars were probably also being nudged just in case.
like a shepherd he said, you can run 10 or 20 of the cars.
At Elon’s Tesla robots are secretly humans, and at Elon’s Twitter human users are secretly bots.
