On the evening of July 3rd, Tesla's official Weibo account announced that the second-generation humanoid robot Optimus will make its debut at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference held in Shanghai from July 4th to 7th. Tesla stated that this exhibition will "witness the further evolution of humanoid robots.".
Recently, Tesla has been receiving continuous positive news. Data shows that Tesla delivered over 440000 vehicles globally in the second quarter of this year, exceeding market expectations. At the same time, the installed capacity of energy storage products in the second quarter reached a historic quarterly high.
On July 3rd local time, Tesla's US stock market continued to rise after opening, with the highest intraday increase reaching 7.39%, approaching a new high since the beginning of the year, with a total market value of $792.038 billion (approximately RMB 576 trillion). It is worth noting that Tesla's stock price has continued to soar this week, with a cumulative increase of over 20%.
It is understood that the second generation Optimus made its debut as early as December 13th last year. On June 14th, at Tesla's annual shareholder meeting held in Austin, Texas, USA, founder and CEO Elon Musk stated that Tesla plans to limit the production of its independently developed Optimus robots starting from 2025 to supply Tesla factories, thereby further improving production efficiency and automation levels. Musk predicts that by next year, Tesla's factory will have "over 1000, and possibly even thousands," Optimus robots put into operation.
