Humanoid vs Home Robots | Durham News

Elon Musk is racing to mass-produce one million Optimus robots by 2035, reallocating Tesla’s auto factories and pouring $25 billion into robot manufacturing—all tied to his massive pay package.

Their “physical AI” concept targets compact Japanese homes with safer, track-based arms, launching its first units in Tokyo by 2028—with plans to sell 10,000 annually by 2035.
